The paper presents empirical evidence for six reconstruction
effects in Mandarin Chinese. It includes data concerning the copula verb,
epistemic modals, scope of aspectual sentence-final particle
–le over indefinite wh-phrases, downward
entailing quantifiers, predicates of creation, Binding Condition B, quantifier
scope and dōu-quantification. The syntactic structures in which
reconstruction applies can be derived either by A- or A-bar-movement. Our
investigation brings empirical facts to bear on the syntax-semantics interface
showing an essential property of natural language that semantic properties and
syntactic structures do not vary freely.
