“…Supporting evidence for this proposal is provided by the fact that when duplication takes place, an additional morphological process is activated, as illustrated in (108) (from Dourado 2002). 108 with tribe to 'You will go with me to the tribe.…”

“…Morphological exceptionality when duplication is involved is also found in postposition incorporation constructions in Panara, a Brazilian indigenous language. As shown in Dourado 2002, postpositions in Panara may be duplicated just in case they can also undergo standard incorporation. Assuming Nunes's (1999Nunes's ( , 2004 analysis of multiple copies, Dourado argues that this restriction follows if the moved postposition may optionally be fused with the head it has adjoined to, as sketched in (107), becoming invisible to the LCA.…”

Based on previous work by Bošković (2001, 2002, 2004a,b) and Nunes (1999, 2004), this chapter discusses a considerable amount of evidence involving A-movement, A'-movement, head movement, and remnant movement that points to the conclusion that "traces" (i.e. copies structurally lower in the syntactic representation) may be phonetically realized. In addition, the issues regarding phonetic realization of copies are shown to be determined by conditions of the phonological component and not of syntax (movement) per se. As a result, the chapter is able to explain a variety of complex phenomena that cannot be captured by trace theory. The chapter starts by reviewing several pieces of evidence that show that the phonetic realization of copies is similar to the LF interpretive procedure in the sense that it allows activation of lower copies, as well as instances of "scattered deletion", where different pieces of different chain links are realized. It is argued that convergence requirements related to linearization and morphological fusion interact with economy computations regarding applications of deletion, yielding a complex crosslinguistic pattern whereby chains in the general case have only their highest link phonetically realized, but they may also trigger pronunciation of a lower link or even pronunciation of multiple links if convergence so demands. * Previous versions of this paper were presented at the Mayfest 2002: The Minimalist Fact (University of Maryland, 5/16-18/02) and at the Workshop "The Copy Theory of Movement on the PF Side" (Universiteit Utrecht, 12/14-15/04). We are thankful to these audiences and an anonymous reviewer for their comments. Special thanks to Marcel den Dikken for his detailed comments and suggestions. Thanks also to Carol Petersen for her editorial help. During the writing of this paper, the second author received support from CNPq (grants 300897/1996-0 and 200422/04-9). On the LF side we thus have some choice in deciding where deletion should take place in nontrivial chains. By contrast, it is standardly assumed that no such choice is available in PF, the 1 From now on, copies will be annotated with superscripts. 2 Chomsky (1993) actually assumes that LF deletion in cases such as (2a) needs to leave a variable (without internal structure) behind, at least for θ-theoretic reasons. This however might become unnecessary under Bošković

“…Dentre estes, podemos citar Dourado (2002) que trata da derivação das aplicativas do Panará (família Jê), sob a ótica da Teoria Gerativa. A investigação das estruturas aplicativas é importante não só para a descrição e análise da morfologia e sintaxe dessas línguas, mas também para a questão de cunho teórico sobre o papel dos núcleos funcionais no licenciamento de argumentos.…”

In this work, we investigue the occurrence of applicative constructions in three Brazilian indigenous languages: Paumarí (Arawá family), Guarani and Tupinambá (Tupi-Guarani family), in the light of Pylkkänen's (2000Pylkkänen's ( , 2002 typology for applicative heads. We have observed the existence of two types of applicative morphemes in these languages: (i) those which select intransitive verbs, licensing syntactic objects with different theta roles (source, comitative, instrument, locative) -(High Applicatives); and (ii) those which are only attached to transitive verbs and which introduce objects with specific theta roles: source or goal/benefactive -(Low Applicatives). Through this typology, it was possible, then, to identify two types of applicative constructions in Tupi-Guarani: comitative causative and possessor stranding.

The morphosyntax of Gothic preverb compounds: incorporation and applicativisation

Gothic preverb compounds illustrate several interesting characteristics, including multiple preverb stacking, idiomatisation, tmesis (i.e., separation by clitics), and P-copying (i.e., multiple pronunciation of the preverb). This paper is a close examination of the morphosyntax of these compounds, highlighting novel empirical generalisations about the Gothic language with key theoretical implications for our understanding of Germanic complex verbs and the alternations they participate in. In particular, this paper proposes a structural distinction between preverb compounds which are obligatorily semantically transparent and those which are optionally idiomatic. In arguing that transparent compounds involve the mechanism of preposition incorporation and m-merger, paralleling recent accounts of clitic doubling, while idiomatic compounds involve a thematic high applicative projection, this paper captures nuanced differences in these compounds’ case assignment and argument licensing behaviour. These structural differences will be shown to derive these two compound types’ constrained interaction with the aforementioned phenomena of stacking, tmesis, and copying. In addition, this paper compares Gothic complex verbs to their cross-linguistic correlates within and beyond Germanic, whilst also providing a diachronic pathway for the development of (multiple) preverb compounds.
