本文论述了[+/- WH]在补语结构、复合WH结构和回声WH疑问句中的分布和使用。在第1节和第2节中,我们讨论了在[-WH]类元素中包含的补语,if, whether。通过s结构上的过滤系统和LFs的解释来处理COMP中补语和wh短语的分布。第3节关注的是回声wh短语的s结构和LF相互作用,假设是[+ wh]和[+/-WH] COMPs。回声wh短语被看作是LF的焦点短语,与它们的多个wh对应词形成对比。乔姆斯基(1973)的优势条件被重新解释为回声问题解释的强制性分配条件,并被证明不遵循乔姆斯基(1981)和相关工作中制定的ECP。
This paper treats the distribution and use of the feature [+/- WH] in structures of complementation, multiple wh constructions, and echo wh questions. It is argued in sections 1 and 2 that within the class of [-WH] elements fall the complementizers that , if , whether . The distribution of complementizers and wh phrases in COMP is treated through a system of filters on S-structures and the interpretation of LFs. Section 3 concerns itself with the S-structure and LF interaction of echo wh phrases, assumed to be [+ WH], and [+/-WH] COMPs. Echo wh phrases are seen to behave as focused phrases at LF, in contrast with their multiple wh counterparts. The Superiority Condition of Chomsky (1973) is reinterpreted as a condition on the obligatory assignment of echo question interpretations, and demonstrated not to follow from the ECP as formulated in Chomsky (1981) and related work.
