The Syntax-Semantics Interface: From Montague Grammar to Today

Research output: Contribution to journalArticlepeer-review

Abstract

In this paper, we overview logical studies of the syntax-semantics interface, with the focus on Montague’s seminal works in the field, called Montague Grammar. We also discuss more recent developments of Montague Grammar on the example of Abstract Categorial Grammars. We briefly illustrate how recent developments in Montague’s line of research contribute to the studies in classical natural language problems such as parsing and generation. We also sketch an approach that makes use of Abstract Categorial Grammars to establish interrelations between the surface form and the meaning of a discourse.
