“…For problems with the former, see Blair (2005), Collins (2007), Neale (2007), Ostertag (2008), and Pupa and Troseth (2011). For problems with the latter, consult Cappelen and Lepore (2005), Martí (2006), Stanley (2007), and Sennet (2011). 31 The same, of course, holds for a close relative of the no stacking limitation, namely the divergence between stacked QPs and pronouns.…”

While there has been much ado about the innumerable ways a speaker can alter the reach of her quantifier phrases, little fuss has been made over the fact that some forms of alteration are, as it were, impossible to pull off. These impossible interpretations cast a shadow over both syntactic and free enrichment approaches to the phenomenon of quantifier domain restriction. Indeed, I argue that these impossible interpretations help to undermine the presupposition that domain restriction is amenable to a uniform theoretical account.

“…I will use a case drawn from the literature on unarticulated constituents inspired by Perry (1986); the case itself is adapted from Recanati (2002). There is a large literature on the theoretical implications of this sort of example which I will not try to summarise (Bach 1994;Taylor 2001;Martí 2006Martí , 2015Borg 2005;Cappelen and Lepore 2007;Sennet 2008;Recanati 2007;Sennet 2011). I accept the conclusion of John Perry, François Recanati, and others, that there are unarticulated constituents.…”

“…"Imported" is a member of a large family of adjectives including "enemy", "domestic", "local", "exported", "foreign", "alien", "native", "indigenous", and "exotic", and common nouns, including "immigrant", "emigrant", and "foreigner" (see also Mitchell 1986;Hall Partee 1989, 1995Nunberg 1992;Perry 2001Perry , 2006Récanati 2002;Vallée 2003;Cappelen and Lepore 2005;Marti 2006;Neale 2008).

“Imported” is a member of a large family of adjectives, including “enemy”, “domestic”, “local”, “exported”, “foreign”. Call these terms contextuals. Contextuals areprima faciecontext-sensitive expressions in that the same contextual sentence can have different truth-values, and hence different truth-conditions, from utterance to utterance. I use Perry’s multipropositionalist framework to get a new angle on contextuals. I explore the idea that the lexical linguistic meaning of contextual adjectives introduces two conditions to the cognitive significance of an utterance. These conditions contain a variable,y, that does not correspond to any lexical component in the sentence. This is the available tool for letting the speakers’ intentions, or what the speakers have in mind, play a semantic role. My view focuses on the complex condition that linguistic meaning (as type) sometimes semantically determines.
