The aim of this paper is to give evidence for positing Agr Phrase in English from the analysis of Heavy NP Shift. It is shown that Heavy NP Shift has several peculiar properties that cannot be explained naturally under the traditional analysis which presupposes a less articulated clausal structure. I propose a new analysis, which treats Heavy NP Shift as movement to the position which agrees with AgrO. It is claimed that this analysis can provide natural explanations for the problems connected with Heavy NP Shift such as subject-object asymmetry and upward-boundedness. It is also argued that Heavy NP Shift does not license parasitic gaps.

This paper aims to discuss the properties of locative/directional inversion (LI) and one subtype of there-construction, namely the Outside Verbal Existential construction (OVE), and to show that the multiple subject analysis of LI and OVE fails to capture all the relevant properties of LI and OVE. Through discussion it will be shown that the VP shell analysis for unaccusative verbs, which is proposed by Radford (1997) and Nishihara (1999), and the specification of P-feature and Topic feature in the finite clauses can provide accounts for the properties of LI and some types of there-construction.

In the Locative Inversion Construction in English, where the subject DP (i.e. the Theme DP) occurs post-verbally, the Location PP appears to occupy the so-called “subject position” (cf. Nishihara (1999, 2005)). In this paper, adopting the copy theory of movement (Chomsky (1995)), I alternatively propose that in this construction, the Spec of TP is filled by the Theme DP. In particular, I argue that the Theme DP undergoes A-movement to the Spec of TP at narrow syntax, with the lower copy in its original position pronounced at PF due to the status of the DP as a focused XP, while the Location PP undergoes overt A′-movement to the Spec of TopP via Topicalization.

This paper provides a syntactic analysis of the locative inversion construction in English, dividing it into two types: one with an unaccusative verb and the other with an unergative verb. It is argued that the former type has the locative PP simultaneously attracted by T and Top by applying the idea of “independent probing” proposed by Chomsky (2008). On the other hand, the latter type has a syntactic structure in which the subject DP undergoes Heavy NP Shift, while the locative PP moves only to SpecTopP, but not to SpecTP. It is shown that the analysis based on these syntactic structures can give a principled explanation to the major syntactic properties of the two types of locative inversion construction within the framework of the Minimalist Program.

Although control infinitives have been assumed to be uniformly CP as strong phases, I argue within the framework of the Minimalist Program in Chomsky (2001a) that control infinitives are divided into two types of CP phases. Specifically, it is proposed that irrealis infinitives are weak CP phases while realis infinitives are strong CP phases. This proposal not only explains the applicability of Heavy DP Shift out of control infinitives and other empirical facts including Double Passive Constructions in English and Scrambling out of finite clauses in Japanese, but also provides a conceptual advantage in that the strong/weak distinction is relevant for CP phases as well as vP phases, thereby making possible a unified treatment of CP and vP.

This paper considers the structure of the what with PRO V-ing construction in English, which is an absolute phrase and induces the potential PRO theorem violation. It is argued that the with of this construction is the complementizer with which differs from ordinary absolute with in that it can cliticize to Infl in parallel with the for to construction discussed in Henry (1992). It is also argued that the significant relation among these constructions should be defined within the dynamic model of grammar initiated by Kajita (1977, 1983).

In this paper, we argue that the combination of an Agree feature and a Tense feature on CP determines the (non-) phasehood of CP. We propose that the presence of both features makes CP a phase while the absence of one or both of the two features makes it a non-phase. It follows from this proposal that finite complements are CP phases while control complements, raising complements, and Accusative with Infinitives are non-phase CPs. It is then predicted that operations can apply across the CP of the latter types. We will show that this prediction is borne out.

This study concerns itself with the relation between the suffix of a derived noun and the possibility of NP-internal movement. We will begin with a summary account of Roeper's (1987) study on inheritance of a verb's argument structure to that of its derived noun. Subsequently, three varieties of nominals that involve movement will be investigated from a morphological perspective. With respect to each nominal, the advantage of a morphological approach over semantic explanations will be demonstrated.

In Present-day English, some motion verbs including come and go can be followed by the bare form of another verb, forming so-called “Double Verb Constructions," which have some unique properties like the inflectional restriction, the selectional restriction on their subjects, and the single event interpretation. These properties are argued to be closely related to their development from V and V constructions in infinitive and imperative uses through grammaticalization in Middle and Modern English. It is shown that as a result of grammaticalization, the relevant motion verbs have been reanalyzed into light verbs located in v that take an infinitival VP complement.
