On the rescuing of some -indefinites
The experimentally backed and hitherto overlooked empirical observation of the paper is a contrast among indefinite Positive Polarity Items regarding their possibility of being rescued under certain operators with different rescuing potential. If / surprise / only / don’t think can rescue some -indefinites, suspending their anti-licensing (i.e., their impossibility to occur in the scope of a clausemate negation): while some -pronouns (in English …
Distributive numerals in Albanian
This paper investigates nga -marked numerals in Albanian. They qualify as distributive numerals, since the presence of nga on the numeral yields a distributive reading of the sentences they belong to. Beyond their differences, most of the previous accounts rely on the hypothesis that distributive numerals introduce some kind of semantic feature, e.g. a covariation feature; an evaluation plurality requirement, also called a post-suppositional plur…
Les superlatifs et la définitude en albanais
Les superlatifs albanais ressemblent à ceux des langues romanes en ce qu’ils n’ont pas de marquage morphologique spécifique, le sens superlatif étant exprimé par le comparatif associé au défini. Cette structure de surface est compatible avec des représentations syntaxiques abstraites différentes : le défini peut être sous D° ou bien former un constituant avec le comparatif. Cet article se propose de fournir des arguments qui permettent de décider…
L’(in)définitude des lectures relatives des superlatifs de qualité et de quantité
Dans certaines langues THE est obligatoire avec les superlatifs de qualité mais impossible avec le quantitatif MOST. J’analyse cette différence d’(in)définitude comme étant corrélée à une différence de position : MOST est dans Spec,Meas (tout comme MANY/MUCH) et D° contient un élément nul ([D°Ø]) sémantiquement invisible, tandis que les superlatifs de qualité sont des modifieurs qui forcent la présence de l’article défini sous D° ([D°THE]).

Romance Linguistics 2010
This volume contains a selection of nineteen peer-reviewed papers from the 40th annual Linguistic Symposium on Romance Languages (LSRL) held at the University of Washington in March 2010. In addition to overviews of Romance linguistics by the editor and by Jurgen Klausenburger in the keynote article, contributions cover a variety of linguistic theoretical topics and a range of Romance languages, including Old and Modern French, Italian, Romanian …
Pronominal Possessors and Feature Uniqueness
This article explains the correlation between agreeing and nonagreeing forms of pronominal possessors and their person features in Romanian and other Indo-European languages: first- and second-person pronouns agree, whereas third-person pronouns are nonagreeing forms marked with genitive case. We show that the distribution of agreeing and nonagreeing pronominal forms follows from a constraint of feature uniqueness , which prevents a pronominal ro…
Existential bare plurals
Impersonal se Constructions in Romance and the Passivization of Unergatives
Romance constructions of the type SE Vunerg (e.g., si dorme) are shown to rely not only on nominative SE, as in Italian finite clauses, but also on accusative middle-passive SE. The latter analysis is needed for Romanian, because this language does not have nominative SE, as well as for Italian nonfinite clauses, in which nominative SE is illegitimate. According to my restatement of Cinque's (1988) generalizations, [+/−1arg] features are not need…
The Syntax of Romanian
The architecture of the human language faculty has been one of the main foci of the linguistic research of the last half century. This branch of linguistics, broadly known as Generative Grammar, is concerned with the formulation of explanatory formal accounts of linguistic phenomena with the ulterior goal of gaining insight into the properties of the 'language organ'. The series comprises high quality monographs and collected volumes that address…
The Syntax of Romanian
Le sujet de l'impératif
CARMEN DOBROVIE-SORIN: The subject of the imperative. This paper considers the status of the empty subject noun phrase of the imperative in French and in Rumanian. For Rumanian the analysis draws a parallei between the cases of lexical nouns that occur in the vocative case (to the right of the verb) and the cases with a surface subject. It is shown that in Rumanian the subject of the imperative is of the same type as the subject of other inflecte…
