Identifying Null Arguments with Ellipsis

open access: yesStudies in Generative Grammar, 2013
Korean allows the null argument construction. In the literature there has been a debate on whether the null argument involves ellipsis (the ellipsis approach) or pro, which can be construed as a bare nominal (the pro approach). In this squib, we argue, following Park and Bae (2012), that the null argument can also involve ellipsis, presenting some new ...

Syntax or nothing: Some theoretical and empirical remarks on implicit arguments

open access: yesBorealis: An International Journal of Hispanic Linguistics, 2014
I show that core implicit subjects in Spanish (i.e., the ones that occur with analytical passives, impersonal se, and causatives) can be derived from a theory under which absence of Merge in external subject position is a possible syntactic output.

Argument ellipsis and strong islands [PDF]

open access: yes, 2018
This thesis investigates two topics: (i) the distribution of argument ellipsis (AE) in languages that permit AE, and (ii) the status of strong islands (SIs). Regarding (i): The present thesis develops a novel account of the distribution of AE.

Pre-DP only is a propositional operator at LF: a new argument from ellipsis

open access: yes, 2022
Based on the scope possibilities of pre-DP only relative to modals and their interaction with ellipsis, we provide a new argument (following Benbaji 2021) for a theory according to which only is always a propositional operator at LF, despite surface ...

Scope Without Scope Economy in Null Argument Constructions

open access: yesLanguages
Building on Fox’s Scope Economy, Takahashi proposes an analysis of scope interactions in Japanese null argument constructions. Scope Economy prevents covert scope-shifting operations such as Quantifier Raising (QR) from being semantically vacuous ...

Pick it up: a look at referential devices in Estonian child-directed speech

open access: yesEesti ja Soome-ugri Keeleteaduse Ajakiri, 2015
This paper compares the forms of expression of core verbal arguments in Estonian child-directed speech (CDS) with those in Estonian speech between adults (ADS).

Identity Conditions on Ellipsis [PDF]

open access: yes, 2021
This dissertation presents a new perspective on the identity condition underpinning ellipsis in natural language. It argues that the condition is irreducibly syntactic—at least in part—but the way this syntactic component works is different than ...

Multimodal Data‐Driven Microstructure Characterization

open access: yesAdvanced Engineering Materials, EarlyView.
A self‐consistent autonomous workflow for EBSP‐based microstructure segmentation by integrating PCA, GMM clustering, and cNMF with information‐theoretic parameter selection, requiring no user input. An optimal ROI size related to characteristic grain size is identified.

A note on the punctuated nature of movement paths

open access: yesCatalan Journal of Linguistics, 2009
This paper addresses the question of how a moving item affects the nodes that lie along the path of movement. In particular, we are concerned with the question whether all nodes along the path of movement are affected in the same way or not.

Creep‐Induced Microstructural Evolution in an A2‐B2 Superalloy

open access: yesAdvanced Engineering Materials, EarlyView.
A 27.3Ta‐27.3Mo‐27.3Ti‐8Cr‐10Al (at.%) refractory high‐entropy alloy with precipitation‐strengthened A2‐B2 microstructure was studied by creep tests at 1030°C, which demonstrate a transition in deformation mechanisms in the range of 100–150 MPa applied stress. This is associated with changes in dislocation–precipitate interactions. Relevant deformation
