Dos formas de inhibición de la lectura referencial de los indéxicos puros
Main Article Content
Abstract
This article aims to explain the non-referential uses of referential expressions through the concept of inhibition. Taking functional referentialism as a starting point, I analyze how different inhibitors affect different types of pure indexicals. Based on this analysis, I characterize two forms of inhibition of the referential reading of pure indexicals: temporal inhibition, generated by temporal adverbs of frequency, and quantificational inhibition, produced by universal and existential quantifiers. I conclude that inhibition offers a systematic account of the non-referential uses of pure indexicals and allows for a better understanding of how certain linguistic constructions modify their interpretation.
