A Further Step towards a Minimalist Analysis of Japanese -no
ثبت نشده
چکیده
This paper revisits the possessive particle no in Japanese, taking a minimalist approach and concludes that no does not instantiate Case, but rather a type of D introducing a (reduced) relative CP and attracts a nominal predicate to its left. We pursues a purely derivational account similar in spirit to den Dikken & Singhapreecha 2004 but better in empirical coverage, attributing different distributional properties to differences in what is contained in the relative CP.

Electrical Activity of Selected Shank Muscles When Using Minimalist Shoes during Single-Leg Landing Task
Nowadays, light and minimal shoes have been used by athletes in various types of sports activities in order to be in a position close to barefoot position. But its effect on the electrical activity of the shank muscles is not well understood. Therefore, the aim of this study was to investigate the electrical activity of selected shank muscles when using minimalist shoes, normal shoes and barefo...
متن کاملGrammar Size and Quantitative Restrictions on Movement
Recently is has been proved that every Minimalist grammar can be converted into a strongly equivalent single movement normal form such that every phrase moves at most once in every derivation. The normal form conversion greatly simplifies the formalism and reduces the complexity of movement dependencies, but it also runs the risk of greatly increasing the size of the grammar. I show that no suc...
متن کاملLinkage analysis of microsatellite markers on chromosome 5 in an F2 population of Japanese quail to identify quantitative trait loci affecting carcass traits
An F2 Japanese quail population was developed by crossing two strains (wild and white) to map quantitative trait loci (QTL) for performance and carcass traits. A total of 472 F2 birds were reared and slaughtered at 42 days of age. Performance and carcass traits were measured on all of the F2 individuals. Parental (P0), F1 and F2 individuals were genotyped with 3 microsatellites from quail chrom...
متن کاملSymmetric Projection in Japanese and English : A Modification of Stabler's Parsing/Generation Model for Minimalist Grammar
The essence of standard X-bar theory is that structure building is asymmetric in the sense that a complex structure inherits properties from only one of its constituents. There are some structures, however, that are best analyzed as reflecting the properties of all their constituents. This kind of symmetric projection should in principle be allowed within the minimalist program if the union of ...
