ABSTRACT
Section 1.1.2 has suggested that the internal structure of the DP can be represented as in (1), where the determiner D and the noun N are the heads of the °projections DP and NP, respectively. The dots indicate the positions available for possible other elements, that is, for °modifiers and °complements. The present section is concerned with the various forms of modification of the NP; for a detailed discussion of complementation in the NP the reader is referred to Chapter 2, and for a discussion of modifiers in the DP to Chapter 7. The relation between the two nouns in binominal constructions like een reep chocola ‘a bar [of] chocolate’ is of a different nature, and is discussed in Chapter 4.
