My proposal has two goals: (i) to establish the distributions of two different strategies for extracting from phases - edge-movement and unlocking; and (ii) to amend phase theory so that it derives this. Goal-(i) matters because, contra most prior assumptions, recent work suggests both edge-movement/unlocking occur, in complementary distribution: sometypes of movement out of phases involve passing through the phase-edge; other types don't, but the phase-head mustbe Agreed with qua 'unlocked'. This applies to DP (Branan & Davis 2019, B&D; Branan 2018, B), and also CP givenevidence for edge-movement through spec-CP (e.g. van Urk 2019) but also unlocking (Rackowski & Richards 2005, VanUrk & Richards 2015). I plan to use cross-linguistic evidence to work out what determines the distribution. Priorsuggestions include a contrast between unlocking for deeply-embedded material (B&D) or for material for which edge-movement is anti-local (B), edge-movement elsewhere - but this involves DP only, and isn't applied cross-linguistically.Crucially, this also requires amending phase theory. Standard phase-theory only allows edge-movement, becausephases Transfer material out of syntax once completed - so it can't be rescued by subsequent 'unlocking'. I'd pursue anintervention-based 'phase' theory, expanding recent work reducing phasehood (Thivierge 2021) and edge-movement(Keine & Zeijlstra 2021) to (phi-)intervention. This would allow reducing locality to one notion, intervention.

我的建议有两个目标：（i）建立用于从相位提取的两种不同策略的分布-边缘移动和解锁;以及（ii）修正相位理论，使得其导出该分布。目标-（i）很重要，因为，与大多数先前的假设相反，最近的工作表明，边缘移动/解锁都发生在互补分布中：相位外的某些类型的移动涉及通过相位边缘;其他类型没有，但相位头必须与qua 'unlocked'一致。这适用于DP（Branan & Davis 2019，B&D; Branan 2018，B），CP也通过规范CP（例如货车Urk 2019）提供了边缘移动的证据，但也解锁（Rackowski &理查兹2005，VanUrk &理查兹2015）。我计划使用跨语言证据来找出是什么决定了分布。先前的建议包括对深层嵌入材料（B&D）或边缘移动是反局部的材料（B）的解锁进行对比，其他地方的边缘移动-但这只涉及DP，并且不适用于跨语言。标准的相位理论只允许边缘移动，因为相位一旦完成就将材料从语法中转移出来-所以它不能被随后的“解锁”所拯救。我会追求一种基于干预的“相位”理论，将最近的工作减少相位（Thividian 2021）和边缘运动（Keine & Zeijlstra 2021）扩展到（phi-）干预。这将允许将局部性简化为一个概念，即干预。
