Lingua, 1996
Japanese is gererally recognized as a language in which there is no observable wh-movement. In this paper, it will be shown that there are two types of wh-elements: one identifiable as wh-operators and the other as non-quantificational variables.

Wh-in-situ phenomena in French

2009
The goal of this thesis is to provide an alternative theory of how wh-expressions are interpreted. I propose that French wh-words are interpreted through an A-bar binding relation subject to a modified Generalized Binding Theory (cf.

Covert Q-movement observes island conditions in the same manner as overt phrasal category movement.

Deriving “wh-in-situ” through movement in Brazilian Portuguese

2013
While languages like English have both dislocated and in-situ wh-phrases, but assign different status to the two types of question – ordinary questions or echo questions -, others, like French, take them as possible syntactic variants for ordinary questions.
