A-bar Syntax: A Study in Movement TypesThe architecture of the human language faculty has been one of the main foci of the linguistic research of the last half century. This branch of linguistics, broadly known as Generative Grammar, is concerned with the formulation of explanatory formal accounts of linguistic phenomena with the ulterior goal of gaining insight into the properties of the 'language organ'. The series comprises high quality monographs and collected volumes that address such issues. The topics in this series range from phonology to semantics, from syntax to information structure, from mathematical linguistics to studies of the lexicon. |

Page 99 - that it is washed now" " In fact, Miiller (1995) states that "the differences between scrambled and 'base' orders in the middle field in most cases appear to be pragmatic in nature, and generally do not affect semantic, ie. truth conditions
Page 110 - ... system to allow for scrambling. However, there are also languages without morphological case marking but with scrambling as well as languages with a rich case morphology but without scrambling.421 This situation leads Miiller ( 1995: 109f.) to the following remark: [W]hat distinguishes German from English must be a more abstract property than just overt Case morphology. But then the distinction between overt (ie morphological) Case and abstract Case becomes blurred - what appears to be required...
