<p><b>New page</b></p><div>The term '''substantive''' is occasionally used to denote the word class consisting of nouns and adjectives, sometimes defined by the feature [+N]' (=[[noun]]).<br />
<br />
=== Comments ===<br />
This is the terminology used in Chomsky (1981:48) and occasionally in later work influenced by him. Chomsky refers to his ''substantive'' category as "based on traditional grammar". This seems to be due to a misunderstanding, since the traditional term ''substantive'' specifically excludes adjectives (see [[substantive (continental)]]), while Chomsky specifically includes them. (Maybe he was vaguely aware that in an older tradition, there was a term for a class including both nouns and adjectives, but this term is [[noun (Latin nomen)]].)<br />
