- Abstract
- The notion that non-factual before is an exceptive construction is explored. It
is shown that this explanation is consistent with observed behavior. A formal
analysis designed for exceptive constructions is reinterpreted as an analysis of
non-factual before. Non-factual interpretations associated with other temporal
expressions are also noted.
