Dependent-case assignment could be Agree
Preminger (to appear) claims that an AGREE-based theory of case assignment undergenerates because it cannot handle attested dependent-case patterns. This paper argues that dependent-case assignment can in fact be modelled using the operation AGREE, building on independently motivated assumptions. Therefore, an AGREE-based theory of case assignment does not undergenerate
Not all reconstruction effects are syntactic
This paper argues that not all reconstruction effects can be reduced to a syntactic mechanism that selectively interprets copies at LF. The argument is based on the novel observation that some but not all reconstruction effects induce Condition C connectivity in Hindi-Urdu. We contend that Hindi-Urdu requires the hybrid approach to reconstruction developed on independent grounds by Lechner (1998, 2013, 2019), where both copy neglect (a syntactic …
Improper case
This paper argues that case assignment is impossible in configurations that parallel generalized improper-movement configurations. Thus, like improper movement, there is “improper case.” The empirical motivation comes from (i) the interaction between case and movement and (ii) crossclausal case assignment in Finnish. I propose that improper case is ruled out by the Ban on Improper Case : a DP in [Spec, XP] cannot establish a dependent-case relati…
Constraining (shifting) types at the interface
This paper argues that traces only range over individual semantic types and cannot betype shifted into higher types to circumvent this restriction. The evidence comes from movementtargeting positions where DPs must denote properties and the behavior of definite descriptionsin these positions. These constraints on possible traces demonstrate that syntactic operationsimpose active restrictions on permissible semantic types in natural language.Keywo…
Intervention in tough-constructions revisited
In this paper, we subject to closer scrutiny one particularly influential recent argument in favour of the long-movement analysis of tough -constructions. Hartman (2011, 2012a, 2012b) discovered that experiencer PPs lead to ungrammaticality in tough -constructions, but not in expletive constructions. He attributes this ungrammaticality to defective intervention of A-movement, a movement step crucially postulated only in the long-movement analysis…
