摘要

本文讨论了英语“介词数词结构”的句法特征，以“约250个婴儿”和“超过16000只动物”为例。在pnc中，介词后面跟着一个数字。以往的分析认为，介词和数字构成介词短语，但我们认为这不是一种令人满意的方法。在HPSG中，可能会提出一些可能的分析，但有理由认为，最好的分析是介词是一个函子，一个非头部选择一个数字头部。

English prepositional numeral constructions

This paper discusses the syntactic properties of 'prepositional numeral constructions (PNCs)' in English, which is exemplified by ‘about 250 babies’ and ‘over 16,000 animals’. In PNCs a preposition is followed by a numeral. Previous analyses have claimed that the preposition and the numeral make a prepositional phrase in PNCs, but we argue that this is not a satisfactory approach. In HPSG there are some possible analyses that might be proposed, but there are reasons for supposing that the best analysis is one in which the preposition is a functor, a non-head selecting a numeral head.
