Summary

Researchers Wesley Scivetti and colleagues investigate how language models (LMs) understand paired-focus constructions, finding that LMs primarily learn constructional semantics rather than syntax.

Why it matters

The study sheds light on the limitations of language models in understanding certain grammatical structures.
