Pseudo-Incorporation in Blackfoot
Blackfoot (Algonquian: Alberta) permits both morphologically transitive and intransitive verbs to take objects, but with different syntactic properties. This paper develops an analysis of the objects of morphologically intransitive verbs as pseudo-incorporated, in the sense introduced by Diane Massam. Diagnostic tests for the syntax and semantics of pseudo-incorporation are applied to objects of morphologically intransitive verbs. Regarding their…
Radical Non‐Configurationality
Originally conceived of as a large‐scale macroparameter, non‐configurationality was thought to delimit languages lacking in hierarchical phrase structure (Chomsky 1981). However, non‐configurationality can be defined instead as a cover term for languages in which there is hierarchical phrase structure, but the evidence for such structure is obscured. In the narrow sense, non‐configurational languages are those that meet three criteria: (i) free w…
