Part I examined the role of animacy in verb-argument processing. Experiment 1 found distinct patterns of neural activation in the processing of verb arguments that violated the animacy restrictions of the preceding verb compared to violations of real-world knowledge. Experiment 2 found that animacy affected the processing of subject noun arguments as well as the subsequent verb. Importantly, this processing was independent of thematic role assignment. Together, these results underscore animacy's critical role in semantic and syntactic processing. Part II examine the time-course of aspectual interpretation. Experiment 3 found that aspectual information is computed as soon as it becomes licensed. Additionally it demonstrated that processing costs associated with iterative coercion are independent of iterativity itself as well as general shifts in aspectual interpretation. Experiment 4 found that iterative interpretation of punctual verbs in the progressive is independent of neural processing associated with aspectual coercion. Additionally, the results indicated that high and low proficiency language users differ qualitatively in aspectual interpretation requiring enriched composition but quantitatively when aspectual interpretation is complex but compositionally transparent. Together the two studies suggest that online event interpretation relies on a complex interplay of multiple neural substrates.
