Antonymy type: contradictory (no gap) vs contrary (gap).
Canonical definition in Core.PropertyDomain.
Instances For
A threshold pair for contrary antonyms.
For contrary pairs like happy/unhappy:
- theta_pos: threshold for positive form (degree > theta_pos -> "happy")
- theta_neg: threshold for negative form (degree < theta_neg -> "unhappy")
- Constraint: theta_neg <= theta_pos (gap exists when theta_neg < theta_pos)
- pos : Core.Scale.Threshold max
- neg : Core.Scale.Threshold max

Instances For
Contradictory negation: "not happy" = degree ≤ theta.
Alias for Semantics.Degree.antonymMeaning — same comparison,
named for its role in the contradictory/contrary distinction.
Equations
Instances For
Contrary negation: "unhappy" = degree < theta_neg.
Equations
Instances For
Check if a degree is in the gap region (neither positive nor negative).
Equations
Instances For
Positive meaning with two-threshold model: degree > theta_pos.
Equations
Instances For
Negative meaning with contrary semantics: "unhappy" = degree < theta_neg.
Equations
Instances For
Negation of contrary negative: "not unhappy" = degree >= theta_neg.
Equations
Instances For
The relation between a positive form and its antonym.
Instances For
Informational strength of a gradable adjective within its scale.
Weak adjectives (e.g., "large", "clean") occupy a broader region of the scale. Strong adjectives (e.g., "gigantic", "pristine") occupy a narrower, more extreme region.
A strong adjective entails its weak counterpart on the same pole: "x is gigantic" ⟹ "x is large", but not vice versa.
This distinction is orthogonal to scale structure (relative vs absolute) and polarity (positive vs negative).

A gradable adjective lexical entry. Bundles surface form, scale structure, and antonym information. The actual threshold is NOT part of the lexical entry — it's contextual.

How a multidimensional adjective binds its dimensions (@cite{sassoon-2013}).
- conjunctive: entity must meet standard in ALL dimensions (e.g., healthy)
- disjunctive: entity must meet standard in SOME dimension (e.g., sick)
- mixed: context determines ∀ vs ∃ (e.g., intelligent)
- conjunctive : DimensionBindingType
- disjunctive : DimensionBindingType

De Morgan: negating conjunctive binding yields disjunctive binding over negated dimension predicates. This is the formal core of @cite{sassoon-2013}'s Hypothesis 2 — under a negation theory of antonymy, if the positive form is conjunctive, the negative antonym (its negation) is disjunctive.
The predicted binding type for a negative antonym, given its positive counterpart's binding type. Follows from De Morgan under the negation theory of antonymy.

@cite{sassoon-2013} Hypothesis 3: standard type predicts binding type. Total (max standard) → conjunctive, partial (min standard) → disjunctive, relative (contextual) → mixed.
