| Zusammenfassung: | Semioticians have generally understood notions of markedness, basing their analysis on a phonological model, whereas a semantic model is more powerful & insightful for applications relating to semiotics. A history of the development of the concept of markedness is presented & notions of zero-interpretation & minus-interpretation are discussed. The potential for an unmarked term to have both zero- & minus-interpretation is discussed with examples. 2 Figures, 40 References. B. Annesser Murray |
