In Section Two I show, through an analysis of conjunctions and the degree word ., that heads do not/ necessarily determine the category of their projections. I assume Chomsky’s (1986) analysis of IP and CP, and Abney’s (1987) theory of DPs.

One hypothesis, in its strongest form, ‘generalized X-bar theory’, holds that all categories project to phrases, including functional elements traditionally analyzed as specifiers (Abney 1987). The other proposal, from Chomsky (1986b), claims that the same phrasal boundaries which block govern

Within Government-Binding Theory this research question can be rephrased as: Which aspects of the grammar constitute invariant principles and which are subject to parameterization? In this paper we claim that phrase structure varies from one language to the next, and that the leve

Syntactic Affixation and Performance Structures, functional elements are bound elements. Phonologically, they are clitics; syntactically, they are unable to appear without an associated thematic element (noun, verb, adjective). I would like to extend the analogy by showing that functional elements also combine with their associated thematic eleme

Here I will attempt to subsume generalized X-bar theory under a more generally ‘free’ X-bar theory and then focus on the nature of Wh-movement, including the possible structural effect of specificity on it, given such a system of phrase structure.
