without a predicator's valency information, no clause internal function can be assigned
to the complementiser, and diferença orients itself towards saber, the only verb present,
though isolated by a clause boundary word. Interestingly this verb-complementation
yields more or less the same sentence meaning with qual excluded as the real sentence
would with qual included ('I can't see the difference in quality). All other words'
readings, since they rely on local context only, are both complete and correct.
4.4.4 Past participle constructions
Past participles, though clearly deverbally derived, obey my morphological class criteria
for adjectives in all but the tense-constructions with ter , that is, like adjectives they
inflect for both number and gender, none being a lexeme category. I have therefore
chosen, where possible, to assign analyses analogous to APs 159 , with the postnominal
@N< and the predicative @
