Absence of Case-matching Effects in Mongolian Sluicing
ثبت نشده
چکیده
Synopsis: In this paper, we provide novel data on sluicing in the Khalkha dialect of Mongolian, and show that wh-remnants and their correlates do not have to match in case. We then argue that Mongolian sluicing is best analyzed by the LF-copy approach (Chung, Ladusaw & McCloskey 1995), where a sluiced clause consists of a wh-remnant base-generated in [Spec, CP] and an empty TP into which the antecedent TP is copied in LF.

Partial Case-Marking in Japanese Stripping/Sluicing: A Dynamic Syntax Account
This article presents novel data on partial casemarking in Japanese stripping/sluicing: only the final NP in multiple stripping/sluicing may lack a case particle. These data challenge previous works that assign radically distinct structures to stripping/sluicing depending on whether or not case-marking is involved. These case-marking patterns are reducible to incremental growth of semantic repr...

متن کاملA Comparative Study of Motives and Decoration of Iranian Safavid and Indian Mongolian Astrolabes (case study: Adler Planetarium and Astronomy Museum, Chicago)
Iranian and Indian Art in Safavid period has a lot of attachments to each other that its effects are visible in abundance of decorations. In that period of time, astrolabe-making especially in Iran and India went a new way and delicate and prolific decorations covered the entire space of the astrolabes. As regards to that the astrolabe has been studied more scientifically regardless of its visu...
متن کاملA Brief Report on Voice Mismatch Effects
The research reported here is part of a larger project investigating similarities and differences among varieties of ellipsis constructions, including VP ellipsis, Sluicing, Pseudogapping, Gapping and NP ellipsis. Merchant (2008), and more recently Tanaka (2011), have claimed that while VP ellipsis (VPE) can tolerate a mismatch in voice between antecedent and ellipsis site, Pseudogapping and Sl...
متن کاملAnother Aspect of the Pair - List Reading in Japanese
1 The glosses used in this paper are as follows: Nom = nominative Case, Acc = Accusative Case, Dat = dative Case, Q = Question particle, Cop = copula, Top = topic marker, Nmlz = nominalizer. 2 Unlike English sluicing which is generally considered as TP deletion following overt wh-movement, as in (i), Japanese sluicing-like construction is considered as the deletion of the presupposition part of...
