schematic

Dr. Starbuck gives an interesting, and it seems to me a true, account -- so far as conceptions so schematic can claim truth at all...

Given the terminology we have introduced here, we can say that all of the bracketed phrases in (3) above are of the schematic form (4) below:

(4) Specifier + Head + Complement

Now, we have already argued in the case of Noun Phrases that a Head Noun together with its Complement form an N-bar; and that this N-bar together with its Specifier ( = Determiner) forms an N-double-bar.
