Isi artikel

The minimal sufficiency reading of anankastic conditionals, discussed in connection with Heim’s (2001) ambiguities in comparative constructions and von Fintel & Iatridou’s (2007) ‘Prejacent Problem’ in the sufficiency modal construction, is argued to stem from the kind of ordering associated with anankastic modals.
