Topic drop and pro drop
One major difference between Chinese-type and German-type languages is that the former allows extensive types of argument drop, while the latter is quite limited beyond the existence of a null topic. This study argues (a) that it is necessary to distinguish among phenomena that have sometimes been referred to with the undifferentiating term “radical pro drop”; (b) that the null topic is restricted to root clauses (CP edge) based on its locality p…
Locality, focus and covert movement
Long‐Distance Anaphora
Cross‐linguistically, long‐distance reflexives do not form a unitary phenomenon but come in a variety of subtypes: as long‐distance bound anaphors, as pronominals, or as entities of an intermediate category. This chapter focuses on the first subtype and on Chinese and some other Asian languages: it describes the prominent syntactic and interpretive properties of long‐distance reflexives and addresses theoretical questions about their analysis and…
Control and raising passives, and why Mandarin does not smuggle
Movement Theory and Constraints in Syntax
The Syntax of Chinese
The past quarter of a century has seen a surge in Chinese syntactic research that has produced a sizeable literature on the analysis of almost every construction in Mandarin Chinese. This guide to Chinese syntax analyses the majority of constructions in Chinese that have featured in theoretical linguistics in the past 25 years, using the authors' own analyses as well as existing or potential alternative treatments. A broad variety of topics are c…

Pro-Drop in Chinese
Wǒ pǎo de kuài and Chinese Phrase Structure
This paper juxtaposes two well-known competing hypotheses about the structure of resultative and descriptive sentences in Chinese. According to the P[rimary] P[redication] hypothesis, the second verb in a ...V1...V2... sequence is treated as the main verb of the sentence; according to the S[econdary] P[redication] hypothesis, the second verb is treated as a complement to the first. Three major arguments for PP are reviewed and shown not to be cog…
