In search of a systematic treatment of determinerless PPs

This paper examines Determinerless PPs in English from a theoretical perspective. We classify attested P + N combinations across a number of analytic dimensions, arguing that the observed cases fall into at least three distinct classes. We then survey three different analytic methods that can predic...
