Verbal and Nominal Properties in Deverbal and Process Nominals

In sum, this dissertation deals with the so-called mixed categories with a general mechanism of word-formation based on the single-engine syntactic approach coupled with a lexical decomposition. I show that the traditional idea that clustering certain properties are necessarily associated with certain first-order categories is not valid. Rather, the idea that certain sequences of functional heads are associated with verbs (and possibly others with nouns) is supported.
