In the case of ' picture '-type nouns, possessives are ambiguous : they can be interpreted as either arguments or possessors.
Three types of constructions are set apar t from the others - existentials, possessives, and clefts.
The existence of such ambiguous examples by no means invalidates the otherwise quite clear-cut and well-motivated distinction between the two kinds of possessives.
In addition, nominals take pronominal suffixes which are interpreted as possessives.
As one of the reviewers rightly points out, these last two forms, possessives and numerals, do not necessarily mark newness.
The possessive's definiteness/specificity is an inherent aspect of the construction as such.
There are attempts to relate the form of possessives to their function.
