">>173"の不定詞関係詞節は法的な意味を持たないと言ったのだが。
不定詞関係詞節に基本的には法的な意味があるのは当然のこと。
(だから、>>171に対しては何の異議も唱えていない。)
Infinitivals where the relativised element is subject have a somewhat wider range
of interpretations than others, allowing non-modal as well as modal meanings:
〔5〕 ⅰ She's obviously the person to finish the job. [modal]
ⅱ She was the first person to finish the job. [non-modal]
Examples [ⅰ] is like the non-subject examples considered above: we understand "best,
most appropriate" and "should" ("the person who should finish the job"). But [ⅱ] has
no such modal meaning, being equivalent simply to 'the first person who finished the job'.
