 Levinson describes “got to stop” as “marked” because it is more complex and less lexicalized than “stopped”. W. Davis (2016a: 160) notes, though, that when we look at clear cases in which a single word is synonymous with a less lexicalized phrase, we often find no difference in implicature (e.g., mare versus adult female horse). And the word often connotes an unusually good example of the kind (e.g., stallion in common parlance connotes an especially fast or dominant uncastrated adult male horse).
