Participle agreement Sample Clauses

Participle agreement. The analysis also makes a further prediction, under the assumption that head-finality in the AdjP and head-finality in the VP cooccur. In the languages where VPs and AdjPs are head- final, we would not only expect there to be no agreement with Adj° when an argument is extracted under A-movement from AdjP (i.e. in predicative adjective constructions), we would also expect there to be no agreement with V° when an argument is extracted under A-movement from VP. The relevant question is whether a non-finite verb in V° shows agreement with an argument extracted to the subject position, e.g. in passive and unaccusative (ergative) constructions. The following examples show how this looks in a VO-language, French, where agreement is possible:

Participle agreement. Italian Xxxxx xx e` dat-a/*o un premio. Xxxxx.NOM SE.DAT be.3SG xxxx.XXXX-X.XX/*X.XX a ‘Xxxx gave herself the prize.’ prize.ACC Dative si agrees first, as it is the closest (Agree relation 1). If datives are underspecified for number and gender, as proposed by Xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx (2003, 2005), they leave these features unvalued on the participle. A second Agree relation is established with the subject. Since Italian allows Multiple Agree, i.e. the dative is not an intervener when there is no feature conflict, the participle can further Agree with the subject in Spec,TP for remaining gender and number features (Agree relation 2), deriving (26). There are no conflicting person specifications as the nominative subject and dative si have the same person (in virtue of being coreferent).
