We propose a record type theoretical account of cases of copredication which have motivated the introduction of dot types in the Generative Lexicon ([2,1]). We will suggest that using record types gives us a general account of dot types and also makes a connection between copredication and the use of hypothetical contexts in a record type theoretic analysis of dynamic generalized quantifiers. We propose a view of lexical innovation which draws both on Pustejovsky’s original work on the Generative Lexicon ([27]) and the notion of resource in [23,15]. We will also address issues relating to counting objects in terms of their aspects which are raised in [1].
