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.
本文在对法语普通使役句的句法结构进行修正的基础上,认为各种定语在使役句中的位置可以参考定语的特征缺陷/完整性及其主定语的特征缺陷/完整性来解释。我展示了faire- 结构涉及一个双句结构,其中嵌入的从句中升高的使役化v是有缺陷的,并激活了宾语的介词。此外,我根据特征内容确定了四种类型的关键字,它们由三种语法依赖操作的不同应用程序许可:Agree-match、Agree-value和Agree-check。

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。

What Divides, and What Unites, Right-Node Raising 什么分开,什么团结,右节点提升

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。

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。

Obligatorily Overt PRO in San Martín Peras Mixtec 强制性公开PRO在圣Martín Peras Mixtec

This article presents obligatory control constructions in San Martín Peras Mixtec, a language in which PRO must be exponed with an overt pronoun. I propose a morphological analysis of this phenomenon in which this language lacks a null allomorph for bound minimal pronouns (Kratzer 2009, Safir 2014, Landau 2015, 2018), posited to underlie silent PRO in other languages. This suggests that null exponence ought not be ontologically tethered to PRO’s distribution or interpretation, but can rather be reduced to the routine functions of language-specific contextual allomorphy.
本文介绍了San Martín Peras Mixtec语言中的强制控制结构,在该语言中PRO必须用显性代词来表示。我提出了对这一现象的形态学分析,在这一现象中,该语言缺乏绑定最小代词的空变体(Kratzer 2009,Safir 2014,Landau 20152018),被认为是其他语言中无声PRO的基础。这表明,零表达不应该在本体论上与PRO的分布或解释联系在一起,而是可以简化为特定语言的上下文变体的常规功能。

The Featural Life of Nominals 名词的特征生活

We introduce a novel locality violation and its repair in Southeastern Sierra Zapotec: an object pronoun cannot cliticize when the subject is a lexical DP. We develop an account in which pronouns and lexical DPs interact with the same probe because they share featural content. In particular, we suggest that the Person domain extends to include non-pronominal DPs, so that all nominals are specified for a feature we call [δ] (to resonate with DP), while all and only personal pronouns are specified for [π]. This account aims to unify the locality violation with the Weak Person Case Constraint (PCC), as well as parallel constraints based on animacy, and requires a departure from Chomsky’s (2000, 2001) classical system of featural co-variation (Agree). A functional head must be able to overprobe: that is, interact with more than one goal, even if its requirements appear to be met. We introduce a probe activation model for Agree in which, after applying once, the operation can apply again, subject to certain restrictions. We compare probe activation to two other systems recently proposed to account for overprobing: Deal’s (2015, to appear) “insatiable probes” and Coon and Keine’s (2021) “feature gluttony.” Neither can account for the locality pattern in Zapotec.
我们在东南Sierra Zapotec介绍了一种新的位置侵犯及其修复:当主语是词汇DP时,宾语代词不能集团化。我们开发了一个账户,其中代词和词汇DP与同一个探针互动,因为它们共享自然内容。特别是,我们建议人称域扩展到包括非代词DP,因此所有名词都是为我们称之为[δ]的特征指定的(与DP共振),而所有且只有人称代词是为[π]指定的。该描述旨在将局部违反与弱人事例约束(PCC)以及基于动物性的平行约束统一起来,并要求偏离Chomsky(20002001)的自然共变异经典系统(同意)。一个职能部门的负责人必须能够超额完成:也就是说,与多个目标互动,即使其要求似乎得到了满足。我们为Agree引入了一个探针激活模型,在该模型中,在申请一次后,操作可以再次申请,但需受某些限制。我们将探针激活与最近提出的另外两个系统进行了比较,这两个系统分别是Deal(2015)的“永不满足的探针”和Coon和Keine(2021)的“特征贪食”。两者都不能解释Zapotec的局部模式。

Verbal Templates Can Influence L-Selection in Semitic 语言模板可以影响闪语的l选择

This squib documents a novel empirical generalization from selection in Semitic: lexically selected PPs can vary by (verbal) template. This discovery is problematic for current analyses which take (lexically) selected arguments to either be introduced by the root (Harley 2014a) or by the categorizing head (Merchant 2019), both of which are lower than the functional heads realized as Semitic templates. Templates can induce alternations in argument structure (e.g. causativization) and diathesis (e.g. passivization)—characteristics typically associated with v/Voice. A preliminary solution is sketched whereby PPs can be jointly selected by the root, categorizing head, and template-defining head.
这篇哑炮记录了闪米特语中选择的一个新颖的经验概括:词汇选择的PPs可能因(语言)模板而异。这一发现对于目前的分析来说是有问题的,因为目前的分析需要(从词汇上)由词根(Harley 2014a)或分类头(Merchant 2019)引入选定的论点,这两个论点都低于作为闪米特模板实现的功能头。模板可以引起论点结构(如因果化)和素质(如被动化)的变化——这些特征通常与v/Voice有关。初步解决方案被勾勒出来,通过该解决方案,PP可以由根、分类头和模板定义头共同选择。

E-Raising Reconsidered: Constituency, Coordination and Case-Matching Reciprocals 重新考虑电子筹款:选区、协调和案例匹配的相互关系

In Icelandic, part of the complex reciprocal hvor annar matches in case with the reciprocal’s antecedent. In structures where the reciprocal is embedded in a PP, the P intervenes between the two parts. A recent analysis of these data suggests that part of the reciprocal overtly moves to the base position of the antecedent by an operation termed e-raising. We show that such an analysis makes a number of wrong predictions about the constituencies of such structures and also about the behavior of reciprocals in coordinations. We show that this is also the case for other languages that show case-agreeing reciprocals. We instead argue that matching in case between antecedent and reciprocal can occur with the reciprocal staying in situ.

在冰岛语中,部分复倒数的hvor annar与倒数的先行词相匹配。在结构中,其中的倒数嵌入在一个PP, P之间的两个部分。最近对这些数据的分析表明,通过一种称为e提升的操作,部分倒数明显移动到先行项的基础位置。我们表明,这样的分析对这种结构的选区和对协调中的往复式的行为做出了许多错误的预测。我们表明,对于显示大小写一致的往复式的其他语言也是如此。相反,我们认为,在情况下,前词和倒数之间的匹配可以在倒数保持原位的情况下发生。有PP的例子确实涉及移动,但只是移动到PP的边缘,而不是更远。这一分析与最近的一些方法是一致的,这些方法主张在先行词和局部限定的回指之间存在形态句法特征匹配关系。

Morpheme Structure Constraints Solve Three Puzzles for Theories of Blocking in Nonderived Environments 语素结构约束解决非派生环境下阻塞理论的三大难题

In Nonderived Environment Blocking (NDEB), a phonological process applies across morpheme boundaries or morpheme-internally when fed by another phonological process but is otherwise blocked. I present a theory of NDEB that attributes blocking to an interaction between morpheme structure constraints (which constrain possible URs in the lexicon) and the usual phonological mapping from URs to surface forms. The theory has some unusual aspects that make it conceptually suspicious, but I will argue that it receives empirical support. Using several case studies, I discuss three puzzles for theories of NDEB previously proposed in the literature, including the Strict Cycle Condition (Mascaró, 1976), Kiparsky’s (1993) theory of underspecification, Sequential Faithfulness (Burzio, 2000), Coloured Containment (van Oostendorp, 2007), and Optimal Interleaving with Candidate Chains (Wolf, 2008). I show that none of those theories can deal with all three puzzles and that the proposed theory with morpheme structure constraints succeeds. This result supports a dual-component architecture of phonology (as in SPE) over architectures that eliminate language-specific morpheme structure constraints (i.e., the principle of Richness of the Base in Optimality Theory).
在非派生环境阻塞(NDEB)中,当由另一个语音过程提供时,语音过程在词素边界或词素内部应用,但在其他方面被阻塞。我提出了一个NDEB理论,将阻塞归因于词素结构约束(约束词典中可能的URs)和从URs到表面形式的常见语音映射之间的相互作用。该理论有一些不同寻常的方面,使其在概念上可疑,但我认为它得到了实证的支持。通过几个案例研究,我讨论了文献中先前提出的NDEB理论的三个难题,包括严格循环条件(Mascaró,1976)、Kiparsky(1993)的欠指定理论、顺序忠实性(Burzio,2000)、彩色包容(van Oostendorp,2007)和具有候选链的最优交织(Wolf,2008)。我证明了这些理论都不能解决这三个难题,并且所提出的带有语素结构约束的理论是成功的。这一结果支持了音韵学的双成分体系结构(如SPE),而不是消除语言特定词素结构约束的体系结构(即最优性理论中的基础丰富性原则)。
