On the alternation between inflectional case and prepositional phrases in Romanian

Summary/Abstract: The goal of this paper is to examine the alternation between nominal expressions marked with morphological case (fiul regelui/the king's son) and certain prepositional phrases (fiul de rege / the royal son) in Romanian. Both types pf constructions involve a relatrion which may either pertain to the lexical meaning of the head N or else be contextually triggered by the presence of the second argument.
