On the other hand, Di Eugenio (1998) proposes (for possessives involving animate possessors) that the ranking depends on the animacy of the possession; animate possessions im- mediately outrank their possessors, while inanimate possessions are ranked immediately below their possessors.	cache/elm-4876.pdf	txt/elm-4876.txt
