Grammatical categories (e.g. complementizer, negation, auxiliary, case) are some of the most important building blocks of syntax and morphology. Categorization therefore poses fundamental questions about grammatical structures and about the lexicon from which they are built. Adopting a 'lexicalist' stance, the authors argue that lexical items are not epiphenomena, but really represent the mapping of sound to meaning (and vice versa) that classical conceptions imply. Their rule-governed combination creates words, phrases and sentences - structured by the 'categories' that are the object of the present inquiry. They argue that the distinction between functional and non-functional categories, between content words and inflections, is not as deeply rooted in grammar as is often thought. In their argumentation they lay the emphasis on empirical evidence, drawn mainly from dialectal variation in the Romance languages, as well as from Albanian.

The Chasing Glance
Th e Chasing Glance appears to be a new venture with a form quite new and alien in the realm of English Poetry. Th e poet sings poignantly and vehemently in his love poems imploring earnestly for the reunion of love, with a predominant note of subjectivity, no doubt. However, it is his other poems, the Nature Poems and other contemplative poems in which the poet has come out with a prophetic voice to the society at large, seeking to reaffi rm the values for decency relationship, loyalty and modesty. It is this which renders gravity and sublimity to his work in spite of his simple and straight forward approach. M.A English, Universty of Peshawar Sirajul Haq.
