Every man loves a woman.
Everyone was arrested by a woman. I then speculate on some ways in which cross-linguistic variation in scope judgments might emerge. Instead I am making a more general claim that ANY scope-ambiguity judgment data may reflect the parser at least as much as the grammar. A psycholinguistic account would place the explanation on the nature of ambiguity resolution processes. Instead, we believe that there is something about the parsing process, specifically the ambiguity resolution process, that makes it nearly impossible to assign an interpretation to this ambiguity.
