ABSTRACT
In the previous chapters we have looked at constituents at various levels: we have introduced clausal constituents (the sentence/clause); we have discussed phrasal categories, i.e. NP, VP, AdjP, PP, AdvP; and we have discussed lexical categories such as N, V, Adj, P, Adv. Phrasal categories were directly related to lexical categories in that we argued that each phrasal category has as its Head a lexical category; for example: an NP has an N as its Head. Phrasal categories are sometimes said to be projections of lexical categories.
