Adding a modifier in the anaphoric NP can impede the good formation of the associative anaphora. If, in the famous example of the village and the church (Un village... L'église...), we substitute l'église romane for l'église, the anaphoric sequence becomes deviant. According to G. Kleiber, this kind of sequence is not well-formed because there is no stereotypical relation between the two referents. We can find however well-formed associative anaphors with a non stereotypical adjectival modifier in the anaphoric NP. In this case, two factors, which are linked to the value of existential uniqueness that the definite article presupposes, are decisive : 1° the restrictive or descriptive feature of the adjective ; 2° if the adjective has a restrictive feature, the stereotypical amount of « parts ».
