Genitive of Negation and the Syntax of Scope This paper presents a new approach to direct objects under sentential negation in Russian based on a set of neglected data. It has long been observed that in Russian, direct objects can receive Genitive case under negation (GN), alternating with the canonical Accusative case (ACC) (see Babby 1980, Pesetsky 1982, Babyonyshev 1996, Brown 1999, et al.) as

Raising and Multiple Agree in Japanese, Icelandic and beyond 1.:A Problem of AGREE: Chomsky(1998,1999) proposes the new ‘movement-less’ theory of feature- checking AGREE. However, the mechanism of AGREE poses one serious but interesting problem under the theory of Defective Intervention Constraint (DIC)(1) (Chomsky1998,1999, Boeckx2000, Ura2000b).(‘>’ is a c-command relation).

On adjunction of a non-head to a head This paper will suggest that some head attracts a maximal projection even when the derivation operates the head adjunction (or the head-movement). In this case, the attracted maximal projection can be adjoined to a head by UriagerekaÕs (1999) Multiple-Spell- Out. Chomsky (1995) assumes the structure of DP, which has the possessive -"whose book" as (1), followi

Elsi Kaiser: The syntax-pragmatics interface and Finnish ditransitive verbs In this paper I present an analysis of the syntax and pragmatics of Finnish ditransitive verbs. Finnish, an SVO language with flexible word order, permits both the direct object- indirect object (DO-IO) order (ex. (1)) and the indirect object-direct object (IO-DO) order (ex. (2)). According to my analysis, the base-generat

Clitic Doubling: a Syntactic Effect of Morphological Case Dimitra Papangeli (uclydpa@ucl.ac.uk) Department of Phonetics and Linguistics, UCL The problem: a. Clitic doubling is not attested in all languages with pronominal clitics: morphological case seems to be a prerequisite. b. Clitic doubling seems to violate the theta criterion: one theta role seems to be assigned to two arguments. The analysi

spahr.dvi A contrastive hierarchical account of positional neutralization Christopher Spahr, University of Toronto Positional neutralization can be defined as the categoricalinability to realize a given contrast within some phonologically defined environment. This occurs e.g. with phonological vowel reduction. For example, in stressed positions, Bulgarian contrasts six different vowels, as seen in

PERCEPTUALLY MOTIVATED EPENTHESIS ASYMMETRIES IN THE ACQUISITION OF CLUSTERS Adam Albright (MIT), Giorgio Magri (CNRS, University of Paris 8) A growing body of evidence supports the view that children’s phonological patterns are shaped not only by child-specific performance pressures (Kiparsky and Menn 1977; McAllister Byun 2011), but also by the universal forces that define adult grammars (Fikker

Structural Asymmetries – The View from Kutchi Gujarati and Marwari Patrick Grosz & Pritty Patel-Grosz (University of Tübingen) Background: Indo-Aryan languages exhibit a split in their case and/or agreement pattern that correlates with aspect. This is illustrated for Standard Gujarati in (1) (from Mistry 1976, DeLancey 1981:628-629). In the perfective, (1a), the subject combines with an ergative c

Sam Steddy, steddy@mit.edu 1 Palatalisation across the Italian Lexicon 1. Introduction. Italian palatalises velars /k,g/ to affricates [tʃ,dʒ] if followed by front vowels /i,e/, though at the morpheme boundary this rule misapplies in both nouns (Giavazzi 2012) and verbs. This irregularity has roots in the evolution from late Latin - which had an exceptionless palatalisation rule - to modern Italia

Agreement vs Concord in Icelandic Cherlon Ussery Carleton College This paper examines the morphology of passive participles, floated quantifiers, and secondary predicates in Icelandic. In Icelandic, verbs and passive participles agree only with nominative DPs. Floated quantifiers and secondary predicates, on the other hand, agree with whatever DP they modify, irrespective of the case of the DP. Th
