초록
The present study aims to elucidate the two discrepancies in metonymy in English: one is about the agreement between a metonymic NP subject and a verb in number and person and the other is about the anaphora between a metonymic NP and a pronoun. As for agreement, in the cases of the NP composed of a determiner and a noun, the verb agrees with the entity which is metonymically referred to by the NP, but in the cases of the NP composed of a personal pronoun or a personal proper noun, the verb agrees with the NP itself, not the referential entity. As for anaphora, in the cases of the NP composed of a determiner and a noun, a pronoun is anaphoric with the referential entity denoted by the NP, but in the cases of the NP composed of a personal proper noun, a pronoun is anaphoric with the NP, not with the referential entity denoted by the NP. The reasons of each discrepancy are also discussed.
Abstract
The present study aims to elucidate the two discrepancies in metonymy in English: one is about the agreement between a metonymic NP subject and a verb in number and person and the other is about the anaphora between a metonymic NP and a pronoun. As for agreement, in the cases of the NP composed of a determiner and a noun, the verb agrees with the entity which is metonymically referred to by the NP, but in the cases of the NP composed of a personal pronoun or a personal proper noun, the verb agrees with the NP itself, not the referential entity. As for anaphora, in the cases of the NP composed of a determiner and a noun, a pronoun is anaphoric with the referential entity denoted by the NP, but in the cases of the NP composed of a personal proper noun, a pronoun is anaphoric with the NP, not with the referential entity denoted by the NP. The reasons of each discrepancy are also discussed.
