Publication Metadata only A Note on the Relation between Evidentiality and Free Choice(2006) Şener, Nilüfer; 112147Publication Metadata only Domain Vagueness and the Epistemic Background(Chicago Linguistic Society Publications, 2007) Şener, Nilüfer; 112147This paper shows that evidentials provide convenient environments for the manifestation of the domain vagueness requirement on Free Choice items such as herhangi bir in Turkish. In English, certain modals restrict the use of Free Choice any. Dayal (1998) suggests that this restriction is due to the domain vagueness requirement on this item. I demonstrate that in Turkish, speakers epistemic background regulates the legitimacy of Free Choice herhangi bir implying that vagueness is a basic property of this item. I propose that the interesting interaction of evidentials with Free Choice item herhangi bir can be accounted for by assuming Kratzer's (1987) theory of modal interpretation, Izvorski's (1997) account for evidentials and Dayal's (1998) proposal on Free Choice any.Publication Metadata only Epistemic Restrictions on Free Choice Herhangi bir in Tukish(California State University, Fresno, 2007) Şener, Nilüfer; 112147Publication Metadata only On the Evidentiality and Free Choice Herhangi bir in Turkish(2010) Şener, Nilüfer; 112147Publication Metadata only Semantics of Reduplicated Evidential Morphology in Turkish(MIT Working Papers in Linguistics #67, 299-310.
