Abstract The question of whether differentially marked objects require raising is not a simple one for languages like Romanian. Kalin and Weisser (2019) use asymmetric coordination involving marked and unmarked objects to support the hypothesis that both classes (can) share the same position. Here we point out numerous complications in the data; crucially, it cannot be confirmed that asymmetric coordination applies at the DP level in Romanian. This raises doubts about the reliability of asymmetric coordination as a test for DOM position in the language.
对于像罗马尼亚语这样的语言来说,区别标记的物体是否需要提升的问题并不简单。Kalin和Weisser(2019)使用涉及标记和未标记物体的不对称协调来支持两个类别(可以)共享相同位置的假设。在这里,我们指出了数据中的许多复杂性;至关重要的是,不能证实不对称协调在罗马尼亚的DP一级适用。这引起了对不对称协调作为语言中DOM位置测试的可靠性的怀疑。

On Internal Merge 关于内部合并

Abstract The rule MOVE, used in various forms in generative grammars to capture displacement or discontinuous constituency, has recently been talked of as an “internal” version of MERGE, the operation of simple node- or set-formation. Internal merge “reconstructs” the displaced element in its original argument-structural position at the level of logical form via a “copy”, to which it has been identical throughout the derivation. Reducing MOVE to MERGE seems to be on the side of simplifying the theory of grammar, potentially eliminating the need for constraints on movement in order to limit overgeneration. The paper addresses the question of how internal merge should be defined in formal terms. An account of discontinuity is proposed in which copies originate in the lexicon, as seems to be required by a strict interpretations of the Inclusiveness Condition of Chomsky (1995b), where they can be thought of as binders and variables in lexical logical form (lf). Merger is defined via a small number of type-dependent combinatory rules, which apply to strictly string-adjacent categories to monotonically project from the lexical array varieties of discontinuous dependencies that have been described in terms of various forms of movement, including “A”, “Ā”, “remnant”, “head”, “parallel”, “sideward”, “covert”, “roll-up”, and “late merge”, without any attendant “constraints on movement” other than those projected from lexical types. The analysis extends to a plethora of other discontinuous operations that have been proposed in addition to or instead of MOVE, including AGREE, LABEL, TRANSFER, and DELETE, all of which are replaced by synchronous monotonic lf and pf merger of contiguous categories. The result is to eliminate structure-dependence and action-at-a-distance of all kinds from syntactic rules.
规则MOVE在生成语法中以各种形式用于捕获位移或不连续的集合,最近被认为是MERGE的“内部”版本,即简单的节点或集合形成操作。内部合并通过“副本”在逻辑形式层面上“重建”被取代的元素在其原始参数结构位置上,在整个推导过程中它都是相同的。将MOVE减少为MERGE似乎是在简化语法理论的一边,潜在地消除了为了限制过度生成而对移动进行约束的需要。本文讨论了内部合并应如何在正式术语中定义的问题。本文提出了一种不连续性的解释,其中副本起源于词汇,这似乎是乔姆斯基(1995b)的包容性条件的严格解释所要求的,在这种情况下,它们可以被认为是词汇逻辑形式的粘合剂和变量(lf)。合并是通过少量类型相关的组合规则来定义的,这些规则适用于严格的字符串相邻类别,从词汇数组中单调地投影出以各种运动形式描述的不连续依赖关系,包括“a”,“Ā”,“残余”,“头部”,“并行”,“侧面”,“隐蔽”,“卷起”和“后期合并”,没有任何伴随的“运动约束”,除了那些从词汇类型投射出来的约束。该分析扩展到除了MOVE之外或代替MOVE的大量其他不连续操作,包括AGREE、LABEL、TRANSFER和DELETE,所有这些操作都被连续类别的同步单调lf和pf合并所取代。其结果是消除句法规则中的结构依赖性和各种远距离动作。

Serial Reduplication Is Empirically Adequate and Typologically Restrictive 序列重叠在经验上是充分的,在类型上是限制性的

Wei and Walker (2020) and Zymet (2018) claim that derivational lookahead effects are attested in the interactions between reduplication and other phonological processes in Mbe and Logoori, respectively. On the basis of this evidence, they argue that reduplication in these languages cannot be modeled by Serial Template Satisfaction (McCarthy, Kimper, and Mullin 2012), a theory of reduplication set in Harmonic Serialism. This article refutes these claims and provides serial analyses for both languages. It further identifies a novel prediction of Base-Reduplicant Correspondence Theory (McCarthy and Prince 1994, 1995, 1999), a parallel theory of reduplication, that reduplicants may surface with marked structures unattested elsewhere in the language, and it demonstrates that these patterns are not replicated in serial.
Wei和Walker(2020)以及Zymet(2018)声称,派生前瞻效应分别在Mbe和Logoori中的重叠和其他语音过程之间的相互作用中得到了证实。基于这一证据,他们认为这些语言中的重叠不能用串行模板满足(McCarthy,Kimper,and Mullin,2012)来建模,串行模板满足是调和串行主义中的重叠集理论。本文驳斥了这些说法,并对这两种语言进行了系列分析。它进一步确定了基础重叠对应理论(McCarthy和Prince 199419951999)的一个新预测,这是一个重叠的平行理论,即重叠词可能在语言的其他地方出现未经测试的标记结构,并证明这些模式不是串行复制的。

Attention and Locality: On Clause-Boundedness and Its Exceptions in Multiple Sluicing 注意与局部性:论多重模糊中的子句有界性及其例外

We provide an account of clause-boundedness in multiple sluicing that also captures its exceptions. Clause-boundedness arises whenever an embedded clause’s subject is not coreferential with a topical discourse referent in the embedding clause. Our account ties clause-boundedness to discourse factors. We discuss implementations that import sensitivity to information structure into the syntax, and compare our approach with recent work—in particular, Grano and Lasnik 2018 and “short source” accounts (most recently, Abels and Dayal 2017, 2021)—and demonstrate that these accounts both under- and overgenerate. The empirical coverage of our account argues against purely syntacticized agreement-based approaches to clause-boundedness.

On Referential Parallelism and Compulsory Binding 论引用并行和强制绑定

Binding and ellipsis are empirically and theoretically symbiotic: each reveals otherwise hidden facts about the other. Here I investigate a case where a theory of binding is entwined with a problematic ellipsis- licensing mechanism, with the result that there are strong reasons to abandon both. The ellipsislicensing mechanism in question is Referential Parallelism (Fox 2000), according to which a bound pronoun may support strict identity under ellipsis. Jettisoning this mechanism forces us to abandon theories of binding that involve what I call compulsory binding, which encode a grammatical preference for binding over coreference and for local over nonlocal binding (Reinhart 1983, Grodzinsky and Reinhart 1993, Fox 2000, Büring 2005). In their place, I suggest that we adopt what I call the violation equivalence approach to binding (Heim 1993, Reinhart 2006, Roelofsen 2010) and a Foxstyle ellipsis-licensing mechanism based on formal alternatives (Katzir 2007, Fox and Katzir 2011).
绑定和省略在经验和理论上是共生的:每一种都揭示了另一种隐藏的事实。在这里,我调查了一个案例,其中约束理论与一个有问题的省略许可机制纠缠在一起,结果是有充分的理由放弃两者。所讨论的省略号许可机制是参照平行性(Fox 2000),根据该机制,绑定代词可能支持省略号下的严格同一性。抛弃这种机制迫使我们放弃涉及我所说的强制绑定的绑定理论,这些理论编码了对绑定比对共指和局部绑定比对非局部绑定的语法偏好(Reinhart 1983,Grodzinsky和Reinhart 1993,Fox 2000,Büring 2005)。取而代之的是,我建议我们采用我所说的违反对等的约束方法(Heim 1993,Reinhart 2006,Roelofsen 2010)和基于正式替代方案的Fox式省略号许可机制(Katzir 2007,Fox和Katzir 2011)。

Defectivity Matters: Cliticization in French Causatives Revisited 缺陷问题:法语使役语气的批评性再访

On the basis of revised syntactic structures for the French faire-causatives, this article argues that the placement of various clitics in these causatives can be accounted for by making reference to the feature defectivity/completeness of clitics and that of their host. I show that the faire-à construction involves a biclausal structure, where the raised causativized v in the embedded clause is defective and activates the object to prepose. In addition, I identify four types of clitics with respect to their feature contents, which are licensed by different applications of three syntactic dependency operations: Agree-match, Agree-value, and Agree-check.

On Realizing External Arguments: A Syntactic and Implicature Theory of the Disjointness Effect for Passives in Adult and Child Grammar 论外部论证的实现:成人和儿童语法中被动语态断裂效应的句法和含义理论

Abstract This contribution presents an account of why disjoint reference effects obtain in verbal but not in adjectival passives. Our focus will be on passives in child language, which are independently argued to be always adjectival. This allows us to use a natural experiment in child grammar that is not available in the adult grammar—predicting the lack of a disjoint reference effect in even those passives that might prima facie be conceived of as verbal. We will conduct our discussion against the background of the difference between adjectival and verbal passives in general. Our account is based on (grammatical) Implicature theory. We show that the initiator in the semantic representation of adjectival passives stays at a kind level, hence cannot introduce a discourse referent. It therefore cannot trigger a disjointness implicature, in contrast to the initiator in verbal passives (see Gehrke 2013, 2015). We show in two experiments, one in Dutch, one in English, that children’s passives do not exhibit disjoint reference, in contrast to adults’ verbal passives, even though children have no trouble computing disjointness implicatures elsewhere. Thus, our contribution confirms with a novel kind of evidence the syntactic nature of young children's difficulty with verbal passives. It offers a new perspective on the nature of the difference between verbal and adjectival passives based on Reinhart's theta-theory, while also offering additional evidence for a grammatical, rather than general pragmatic, theory of implicatures.
摘要这篇文章提出了为什么不连贯的指称效应出现在动词性的被动语态中,而不是在形容词被动语态中。我们的重点将放在儿童语言中的被动语态上,这些被动语态通常被认为是形容词。这使我们能够在儿童语法中使用一种自然的实验,而这种实验在成人语法中是不可用的——预测即使在那些可能表面上被认为是言语的被动语态中也缺乏脱节的参考效应。我们将在形容词和一般动词被动语态的区别的背景下进行讨论。我们的叙述基于(语法)含义理论。在形容词被动语态的语义表征中,发起者停留在一种层次上,因此不能引入语篇指称物。因此,与动词被动语态中的发起者不同,它不能触发不连贯的含义(见Gehrke 2013, 2015)。我们在两个实验中(一个用荷兰语,一个用英语)表明,与成人的言语被动相比,儿童的被动语态没有表现出不连贯的指称,尽管儿童在其他地方计算不连贯的含义没有困难。因此,我们的贡献以一种新的证据证实了幼儿言语被动语态困难的句法性质。它在莱因哈特的理论基础上为动词和形容词被动语态差异的本质提供了一个新的视角,同时也为语法而不是一般语用的含意理论提供了额外的证据。

We argue, following Barros and Vicente (2011), that right-node raising (RNR) results from either ellipsis or multidominance. Four considerations support this claim. (a) RNR has properties of ellipsis and of multidominance. (b) Where these are combined, the structure results from repeated RNR: a pivot created through ellipsis contains a right-peripheral secondary pivot created through multidominance. (c) In certain circumstances, one or the other derivation is blocked, so that RNR behaves like pure ellipsis or pure multidominance. (d) Linearization of RNR-as-multidominance requires pruning. The same pruning operation delivers RNR-as-ellipsis, which explains why the two derivations must meet the same ordering constraints.
继Barros和Vicente(2011)之后,我们认为右节点提升(RNR)是由省略或多支配引起的。有四个因素支持这一说法。(a) RNR具有省略性和多优势性。(b)当这些组合在一起时,结构是由重复的RNR产生的:通过省略创建的枢轴包含通过多重支配创建的右外围次要枢轴。(c)在某些情况下,一个或另一个派生被阻塞,因此RNR表现为纯省略号或纯多优势。(d) rnr作为多优势的线性化需要修剪。相同的剪枝操作提供RNR-as-ellipsis,这解释了为什么两个派生必须满足相同的排序约束。

Topic Particles, Agreement and Movement in an Arabic Dialect 阿拉伯语方言中的话题助词、一致性和移动

Abstract The dialect of North Hail in Saudi Arabia, a variety of Najdi Arabic, has a set of sentence-initial particles marking topics of various kinds. The kinds of topics they mark correspond closely to the three classes of topics argued by Frascarelli & Hinterhölzl (2007) to be characteristic of Italian and German: Shift-Topic, Contrastive Topic, and Familiar Topic. In their work, as in much other work in the cartographic tradition, a hierarchy of abstract Topic heads is postulated in the C-domain, which host the topical phrases as specifiers. In North Hail Arabic, the Topic heads are not abstract, but overt, spelled out as particles. Some of the Topic headsmark topics by attracting them to the C-domain, as familiar from other languages, other particles mark topics by φ-feature agreement. The particles in the C-domain agree in person, number and gender with a DP in TP, subject or object. This is analysed in terms of Agree (Chomsky 2001, 2008). Arguments and adverbials are assigned particular Topic values either by agreement or by movement. The particles thus provide evidence that topicality can be a syntactic feature, inherent in lexical items (the particles), and assigned to constituents by operations familiar from standard syntactic relations such as subject agreement and case. The theory articulated observes the Inclusiveness condition, known to be a problem for the cartographic theory of topic and focus.
沙特阿拉伯北冰雹方言是纳吉迪阿拉伯语的一个变种,它有一组标记各种主题的句首助词。它们所标记的主题类型与弗拉斯卡雷利(Frascarelli)提出的三类主题非常接近。Hinterhölzl(2007)意大利语和德语的特点:转换话题、对比话题和熟悉话题。在他们的工作中,就像在制图传统中的许多其他工作中一样,在c域中假设了抽象主题头部的层次结构,该结构将主题短语作为说明符。在北黑尔阿拉伯语中,主题的头不是抽象的,而是明显的,以粒子的形式拼写出来。一些主题标题通过将主题吸引到c域来标记主题,就像其他语言中所熟悉的那样,其他粒子通过φ-feature一致来标记主题。c域的粒子在人称、数量和性别上与TP、主语或宾语中的DP一致。这是在同意方面进行分析的(乔姆斯基2001年,2008年)。论点和状语通过协议或移动被赋予特定的主题值。因此,粒子提供了证据,表明话题性可以是一种句法特征,固有于词汇项(粒子)中,并通过熟悉标准句法关系(如主语一致和格)的操作分配给成分。所阐述的理论观察到的包容性条件,被认为是一个问题的地图学理论的主题和焦点。

The kinds of topics they mark correspond closely to the three classes of topics argued by Frascarelli & Hinterhölzl (2007) to be characteristic of Italian and German: Shift-Topic, Contrastive Topic, and Familiar Topic. In their work, as in much other work in the cartographic tradition, a hierarchy of abstract Topic heads is postulated in the C-domain, which host the topical phrases as specifiers. In North Hail Arabic, the Topic heads are not abstract, but overt, spelled out as particles. Some of the Topic headsmark topics by attracting them to the C-domain, as familiar from other languages, other particles mark topics by φ-feature agreement. The particles in the C-domain agree in person, number and gender with a DP in TP, subject or object. This is analysed in terms of Agree (Chomsky 2001, 2008). Arguments and adverbials are assigned particular Topic values either by agreement or by movement. The particles thus provide evidence that topicality can be a syntactic feature, inherent in lexical items (the particles), and assigned to constituents by operations familiar from standard syntactic relations such as subject agreement and case.

Revisiting Passive Participles: Category Status and Internal Structure 再论被动分词:范畴、地位与内部结构

This article challenges the view that eventive and stative passive participles are verbs and adjectives, respectively. Instead, I argue that existing diagnostics are sensitive to the eventive/stative contrast and to independent restrictions on word order. I show that both eventive and stative participles in Serbo-Croatian have the external syntax and morphology of adjectives, and propose that passive participles in various languages are adjectives that embed varying amounts of verbal structure. Finally, I contend that agentive phrases are always available with stative participles that entail a prior event in languages that obligatorily express grammatical aspect on the verb stem.
本文对事件被动分词和静态被动分词分别是动词和形容词的观点提出了质疑。相反,我认为现有的诊断对事件/静态对比和单词顺序的独立限制很敏感。我证明塞尔维亚克罗地亚语中的事件分词和静态分词都具有形容词的外部句法和形态,并提出各种语言中的被动分词都是嵌入不同数量言语结构的形容词。最后,我认为,在强制性地在动词词干上表达语法方面的语言中,代理短语总是可以与包含先前事件的静态分词一起使用。
