TY - JOUR TI - Polish Deadjectival Nouns as Nominalized Adverbs AU - Wiland, Bartosz TI - Polish Deadjectival Nouns as Nominalized Adverbs AB - The traditional description of Polish abstract nouns such as lekkość‘ lightness’or jasność ‘brightness’ holds that they are formed with an adjectival root and the nominalizing suffix -ość. The paper considers an alternative analysis where -o-ść is a complex marker and such nominals go through an adverbial stage in their formation, rendering them [[[ A ] Adv ] N ] structures, a possibility suggested by the fact that the -o itself is an adverbial marker.
