SUMMARY:Valentine Hacquard: "Bootstrapping into Attitudes"
DESCRIPTION:Valentine Hacquard from the University of Maryland will be presenting this talk which explores two classic problems at the semantics-pragmatics interface from a learner’s perspective. First\, the meaning that speakers convey often goes beyond the literal meaning of the sentences they utter. Second\, not all content encoded in utterances has equal standing: some is foregrounded\, some backgrounded. Yet a sentence does not formally distinguish what a speaker asserts from what she presupposes or merely implicates. For this reason\, the child acquiring a language has a daunting task. She must both extract the literal meaning from the overall message\, and separate the background assumptions that are linguistically required from those that are incidental. I will discuss\, through a few case studies on children’s acquisition of attitudes\, the ways in which the syntax might guide the child with this daunting task.
