在这篇文章中,我们提出了一个阶段为基础的替代凯恩(1989年)的分析,在意大利语的过去分词协议。这一分析抓住了主要事实,而没有提到指定人-主管人协议。相反,显性过去分词一致的可能性由短语不可穿透性条件决定,并与过去分词的表面位置有关。分析有有趣的跨语言的影响,特别是在它预测了一个普遍的不对称之间的主体和客体的协议。
In this article, we propose a phase-based alternative to Kayne’s (1989) analysis of past participle agreement in Italian. This analysis captures the principal facts without making reference to specifier-head agreement. Instead, the possibility of overt past participle agreement is determined by the Phase Impenetrability Condition and is linked to the surface position of the past participle. The analysis has interesting crosslinguistic implications, notably in that it predicts a general asymmetry between subject and object agreement.
