I argue that the concept of predicate composition in general, and the mechanisms required to achieve it, are problematic, but that the most problematic element is the concept of argument fusion. I show that a semantically-integrated account of complex predicate formation is possible within LFG+glue, an account which provides a simple and effective formalization of argument fusion, and which does not suffer from the weaknesses of traditional approaches.</p>}, number={2}, journal={Journal of Language Modelling}, author={Lowe, John J.}, year={2016}, month={Feb.}, pages={413–462} }
