Quantifier‐Float
Quantifier‐float (‘ All linguists have read Aspects ’ to ‘Linguists have all read Aspects ’) has posed many research questions since the mid‐1970s. At the center of debate has been the nature of the syntactic relation between Q and its associate. In Sportiche's influential analysis, QF signals an NP‐trace , the product of A‐movement. Extensive research on QF, initially in French and English (on which Sportiche's proposal is mainly based), but lat…
Chapter 7. On the fronting of non-contrastive topics in Germanic
The present chapter proposes a novel account of the existence of fronted non-contrastive topics in German and its absence in Dutch. The main claim is that the relevant difference between the two languages reduces to the type of scrambling they have: only Dutch scrambling is triggered by an uninterpretable phi(person)-feature on v* (M. Richards 2008). The proposal, fully compatible with Chomsky’s (2000 and subsequent work) model of cyclic Spell-Ou…
The acquisition of control crosslinguistically
Rules for interpreting empty category (EC) subjects of complement clauses vary crosslinguistically across structural and lexical dimensions. In adult Greek, a distinction is made between the verbs meaning WANT and TRY, the former but not the latter permitting the EC subject of its subjunctive complement to refer outside the sentence. The EC is pro for WANT and PRO for TRY. In adult Spanish, both the verbs meaning WANT and TRY require the EC subje…
