On the Treatment of Scrambling and Adjunction in Minimalist Grammars
1 Introduction Stabler (2001:258) suggested that ""asymmetric" feature checking" is among the mechanisms that "remain to be carefully explored" within his "minimalist grammars" framework. Our presentation will undertake exactly this kind of exploration. Concretely, we are going to extend the "minimalist grammars" framework of Stabler (1997) (see also Harkema 2001; Michaelis 2001) by adding the ...

متن کاملThe Timing of Adjunction
This paper proposes a combinatory algorithm of structure building within the bare phrase structure theory of the Minimalist program, which assumes operation Merge as the basic structure building device. The proposed algorithm enforces a particular timing of application of 'substitution' Merge and 'adjunction' Merge. In particular, I argue that XP adjuncts are Merged 'postcyclically' in overt sy...
متن کاملAdjuncts and Minimalist Grammars
The behaviour of adverbs and adjectives has qualities of both ordinary selection and something else, something unique to modifiers. This makes them difficult to model. Modifiers are generally optional and transparent to selection while arguments are required and driven by selection. Cinque [4] proposes that adverbs, functional heads, and descriptive adjectives are underlyingly uniformly ordered...
متن کاملApplications of the Kleisli and Eilenberg-Moore 2-adjunctions
In 2010, J. Climent Vidal and J. Soliveres Tur developed, among other things, a pair of 2-adjunctions between the 2-category of adjunctions and the 2-category of monads. One is related to the Kleisli adjunction and the other to the Eilenberg-Moore adjunction for a given monad.Since any 2-adjunction induces certain natural isomorphisms of categories, these can be used to classify bijection...
