Abstract

Abstract The goal of this article is to discuss the nature of so-called perfective adjectives in Spanish (desnudo ‘naked,’ suelto ‘loose’). We do so through a discussion of the problem that participles are blocked by perfective adjectives in some contexts (Dejó la habitación {limpia / ∗limpiada} ‘He left the room {clean / ∗cleaned}). We will argue that perfective adjectives contain in their internal structure a StateP that can contextually be interpreted as a result state; this head has morphological, syntactic and semantic effects, and makes the structure spelled out by the perfective adjective identical to the one associated with a small participle, with the result that a principle of lexical economy blocks the participial morphology in situations where only the small participle is allowed.
完成式形容词的内部结构:状态与阻塞
本文的目的是讨论西班牙语中所谓的完成形容词(desnudo“裸体”,suelto“松散”)的性质。我们通过讨论在某些上下文中分词被完成性形容词所阻挡的问题来做到这一点(Dejó la habitación {limpia /∗limpiada} ' He left the room {clean /∗cleaned})。我们将论证完成式形容词在其内部结构中包含一个StateP,它可以在上下文中被解释为结果状态;这个词头具有词形、句法和语义上的作用,使完成形容词所表达的结构与小分词所表达的结构完全相同,其结果是,在只允许使用小分词的情况下,词汇经济原则阻止了分词形态。
