Resum:	In this paper it shail be concerned with a set of issues which will allow me to approach the interface between linguistics, conceived as a theory of linguistic knowledge (Chomsky 1992, 1995), and pragmatics, conceived as a theory of utterance interpretation (Sperber - Wilson 1986), and in particular to examine the contribution of linguistic meaning to utterance interpretation. The analysis 1 propose involving the content of some lexical items will allow me to put forward the hypothesis that any specification for meaning representation which is contained within a lexical entry must be understood as a type of constraint or instruction on the process of building up the logical structure or propositional form corresponding to a given utterance (Kempson 1992).
