One of the main discoveries of generative syntax is that long-distance extraction proceeds in a successive-cyclic manner, in that these dependencies are comprised of a sequence of local extraction steps. This paper provides support for this general picture by presenting parsing evidence for intermediate landing sites created by successive-cyclic movement, building on prior work by Gibson & Warren (2004). It furthermore uses this parsing evidence to investigate the distribution of intermediate gaps. The central ﬁndings of this paper are that (i) there is evidence that successive-cyclic movement targets the edge of CPs, and (ii) that there is no comparable evidence for an intermediate landing site at vP edges. These ﬁndings are fully consistent with the classical view of successive cyclicity, according to which only ﬁnite clause edges host intermediate landing sites. In the context of phase theory, these results receive a straightforward explanation if CPs are phases, but vPs are not. The processing evidence presented here thus provides a novel diagnostic for the distribution of phases and new evidence for their active role in online sentence processing.","PeriodicalId":45823,"journal":{"name":"Syntax-A Journal of Theoretical Experimental and Interdisciplinary Research","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.8,"publicationDate":"2020-05-07","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://sci-hub-pdf.com/10.1111/synt.12195","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"41668432","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"文学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Weisser","doi":"10.1111/synt.12188","DOIUrl":"https://doi.org/10.1111/synt.12188","url":null,"abstract":"In this paper, I argue that all of the conjuncts in nominal conjunction always bear the same case. Apparent counterexamples, where conjuncts seem to differ with respect to morphological case marking are claimed to be either due to a misanalysis of the underlying syntactic structure or due to superficial morphological processes that create the impression of a difference in case marking. Once we control for phenomena of this sort (namely &P-clitics, Suspended Affixation and Allomorphy), we find that case marking is always symmetric in nominal conjunction. This finding is in stark contrast to the phenomenon of φ -agreement which is known to exhibit asymmetry effects. Based on this observation, I show that the Chomskyan account to case assignment according to which case arises only as a reflex of φ -agreement cannot account for this mismatch without stipulative assumptions. The pattern however follows straightforwardly if we assume that case assignment proceeds on the basis of syntactic structure whereas φ -agreement can either be syntactic or postsyntactic. Finally, I show that the generalization established in this paper can be used as a simple diagnostic to distinguish syntactic from morphological case marking alternations.","PeriodicalId":45823,"journal":{"name":"Syntax-A Journal of Theoretical Experimental and Interdisciplinary Research","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.8,"publicationDate":"2020-03-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://sci-hub-pdf.com/10.1111/synt.12188","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"41765642","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"文学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
