Eliding the Derivation: A Minimalist Formalization of Ellipsis
In this paper I use the formal framework of minimalist grammars to implement a version of the traditional approach to ellipsis as ‘deletion under syntactic (derivational) identity’, which, in conjunction with canonical analyses of voice phenomena, immediately allows for voice mismatches in verb phrase ellipsis, but not in sluicing. This approach to ellipsis is naturally implemented in a parser ...
متن کاملPHRASE STRUCTURE IN MINIMALIST SYNTAX by
This thesis is a study of clause architecture within a theory of generative grammar. It discusses four major syntactic hypotheses that have crucial bearing on the design of phrase structure: the Agreement-based Case theory, the internal subject hypothesis (ISH), the uniform three-level X-bar theory, and a hypothesis about string vacuous head movement. In Chapter 2 through Chapter 4, I discuss o...

متن کاملA minimalist view of the syntax-lexical semantics interface
This paper presents a restrictive theory of the interface between the lexicon and the syntax. I assume that only a limited amount of lexical information is available at the interface, and, following Borer (1994), that semantic (aspectual) interpretation is assigned at specifiers of aspectual projections, rather than within the VP. Thus, the concept of "Mapping" from lexicon to syntax or the "Li...
متن کاملMiniJudge: Software for minimalist experimental syntax
MiniJudge is free online open-source software to help theoretical syntacticians collect and analyze native-speaker acceptability judgments in a way that combines the speed and ease of traditional introspective methods with the power and statistical validity afforded by rigorous experimental design. This paper shows why MiniJudge is useful, what it feels like to use it, and how it works.
