A Note on P-Stranding and Adjunct Extraction from Nominals
Bošković ( 2005 , 2008 ) outlines a phase-based analysis of adjunct extraction in determinerless languages like Serbo-Croatian (SC). The analysis is modeled on recent phase-based analyses of P(reposition)-stranding (see Abels 2003 , 2012 ) wherein the richness of the functional structure of the PP determines whether extraction is possible. This squib identifies a problem for a unified analysis of these two phenomena. Bans on adjunct extraction ar…
Arabic Conjunct-Sensitive Agreement and Primitive Operations
In some Arabic dialects, preverbal coordinated subjects cause plural agreement on the verb while postverbal ones cause either plural agreement or singular agreement. This paradigm has been addressed by Aoun, Benmamoun, and Sportiche ( 1994 , 1999 ) and Munn (1999) , with varying degrees of success. This article offers an alternative to the previous analyses that utilizes the concept of decomposed Merge ( Hornstein 2009 ), whereby Merge is reanaly…
A Dilemma with Accounts of Right Node Raising
There is a dilemma in current studies of right node raising (RNR): the main approaches to the construction make fundamentally contradictory predictions that account for overlapping sets of data. In this squib, I argue that no single current analysis can account for the range of data, and I argue against the possibility that the analyses work in concert to account for the data. That is, given that each current analysis accounts for some but not al…
