Abstract
abstract
This paper is concerned with multiple source left branch extraction in Bosnian-Croatian-Serbian, where left branch elements of multiple NPs are extracted. It shows that while multiple source left branch extraction is possible, it exhibits ordering restrictions. It demonstrates that these locality effects are based on an important fact that has also been noticed on completely different grounds for Case in left branch extraction by Dadan (2020): left branch elements enter feature-sharing with the elements they modify not in their base position, but after they undergo movement. It is argued that the observed locality effects can be accounted for in a system based on Bošković's (2007) proposal that movement is driven by the presence of an uniterpretable uK feature on the moving element, as well as Bošković's (2020, 2021) proposal that uK disrupts labeling (Chomsky 2013).
期刊介绍:
Journal of Slavic Linguistics, or JSL, is the official journal of the Slavic Linguistics Society. JSL publishes research articles and book reviews that address the description and analysis of Slavic languages and that are of general interest to linguists. Published papers deal with any aspect of synchronic or diachronic Slavic linguistics – phonetics, phonology, morphology, syntax, semantics, or pragmatics – which raises substantive problems of broad theoretical concern or proposes significant descriptive generalizations. Comparative studies and formal analyses are also published. Different theoretical orientations are represented in the journal. One volume (two issues) is published per year, ca. 360 pp.
