Example
Thus, in a sequence such as [French English teacher], since English is closer to
the Head Noun teacher, it must be a Complement; and since French is further
away from teacher, it must be an Attribute. Hence, we correctly predict that
the only possible interpretation for [a French English teacher] is ‘a person who
teaches English who is Frenchʼ. So our analysis not only has semantic plausi-
bility; but in addition it has independent syntactic support.
