The Morphosyntax of Polish and Ukrainian -no/-to
نویسندگان
چکیده
This paper provides a detailed description of the Polish and Ukrainian -no/-to + accusative construction, with considerable attention to how the two constructions differ and to their relevance for current morphological and syntactic theory. It is argued that Polish and Ukrainian -no/-to differ with respect to where the word-final /-no/-to/ affix is generated in the narrow syntax. A wide range of seemingly unrelated syntactic properties follow from this single claim. In the case of Polish -no/-to, it is shown that the wordfinal affix is not voice-altering, but rather generated in the head of a higher Aux projection. A separationist view of Morphology is adopted in which the stem and affix are joined post-syntactically. Ukrainian -no/-to is a genuine passive. This construction is related more generally to a class of accusative-Case-marked unaccusatives. Here it is shown that a Tense projection impoverished for agreement (φ-incomplete T) is a necessary (and surprising) condition for unaccusatives to appear with ACC-Case-marked complements.
