A Dependency Grammar Account](https://md.research.elamur.ai/free/en/papers/osborne-2017-control-vs-raising-english-dependency/)** *(2017)* The paper argues that a dependency grammar cannot tell control predicates (prefer, ask, pretty) from raising predicates (seem, expect, tough) by tree shape alone, because both take a to-infinitive and get the same flat structure. ## Co-authors (1) - Matthew Reeve
