本文认为，日语中的wh-in-situ实际上是一个不可见实体的S-结构移动，因此，西河内（1986，1990）和佩谢茨基（1987）发现并用作LF邻接性证据的邻接效应就是由于这种S-结构移动。这一结论是由以下事实强加给我们的：（1）在多个问题中，其中一个wh短语在岛内，另一个在岛外，没有邻接效应，与LF邻接假设的预期相反，（2）间接疑问句构成了一个wh-岛，尽管wh-短语的可见部分仍然在S处，这里报告的研究部分得到了Fullbright奖学金的支持。
This paper argues that wh-in-situ in Japanese in fact involves S-structure movement of an invisible entity and therefore that the Subjacency effects discovered and used as evidence for LF Subjacency by Nishigauchi (1986, 1990) and Pesetsky (1987) are due to this S-structure movement. This conclusion is forced on us by the facts that (1) in multiple questions where one of the wh-phrases is inside an island and the other is outside of it, there are no Subjacency effects, contrary to the expectation of the LF Subjacency hypothesis, and that (2) an indirect question constitutes a wh-island for overt movement even though the visible part of the wh-phrase is still in-situ at S-structure.The research reported here was partially supported by a Fullbright fellowship.
