Focus intervention effects in Mandarin multiple wh-questions
Journal of East Asian Linguistics, 2015In this paper, we investigate focus intervention effects in Mandarin multiple wh-questions, showing that such effects arise only if a focus particle and its focus associate intervene between the interrogative complementizer C[Q] and one or more in-situ wh-phrases.

I present a new syntactic analysis for multiple wh-constructions. Adopting Richards 1997, I assume that there are two types of languages concerning wh-movement: Such which A-move their wh-words (A-languages) and such which A’-move them (A’-languages). I expand Richard’s account by assuming that in both types, wh-movement targets the CP.

Multiple Wh-questions and the cleft construction in Malayalam
2013Wh-questions in Malayalam are usually clefts, with the wh-phrase occupying the cleft focus. An alternative to clefting the wh-element is to cleft the whole clause containing the wh. When there are multiple wh-phrases in the embedded clause, however, the only option is to cleft the embedded clause wholesale.

The acquisition of multiple wh-questions by high-proficiency non-native speakers of English
Second Language Research, 2000This paper investigates the knowledge of multiple wh-questions such as Who ate what? by high-proficiency non-native speakers of English whose first language is Japanese. Japanese grammar is known to license a wider range of such questions than English – who came why, for example – although the precise theoretical account is not yet clear ...

Case Study II: Multiple Wh-Questions in Japanese
2016This chapter is a further illustration of how Quantifier Raising (QR) is constrained by minimal Search and Minimize chain links (MCL) applied to Float. It is argued that the so-called pair-list reading of a multiple wh-question in Japanese is derived from an LF representation in which the lower wh-phrase is covertly merged with the higher one.

Teaching children with autism to answer novel wh-questions by utilizing a multiple exemplar strategy
Research in Developmental Disabilities, 2001This study investigated the transfer and maintenance of question-answering skills in five children diagnosed with autism. A multiple baseline design across classes of questions (i.e., what, where, who and why) was applied for each child. Question-answer exemplars were selected within each class, and each class was trained separately in consecutive ...

The Freezing Principle in Hungarian polarity, non-polarity and multiple wh-questions
2013This paper explores how weak erotetic vajon ‘whether, if…at all’ interacts with the interrogative clitic -e ‘QCL’ in polarity questions and with wh-words in non-polarity and multiple wh-questions in Hungarian. Vajon ‘if…at all’, sitting in ForceP, forms an expletive–associate chain with FINP, which hosts the polarity interrogative clitic -e ‘QCL ...
