Do Persian native speakers prosodically mark wh-in-situ questions? [PDF]

Lang Speech, 2018
It has been shown that prosody contributes to the contrast between declarativity and interro- gativity, notably in interrogative utterances lacking lexico-syntactic features of interrogativity. Accordingly, it may be proposed that prosody plays a role in

Involvement of the anterior insula and frontal operculum during wh-question comprehension of wh-in-situ Korean language. [PDF]

PLoS ONE
In this research, we employed functional magnetic resonance imaging (fMRI) to examine the neurological basis for understanding wh-questions in wh-in-situ languages such as Korean, where wh-elements maintain their original positions instead of moving ...

In-situ and ex-situ wh-question constructions in Moro [PDF]

Journal of African Languages and Linguistics, 2014
This paper addresses the formation of wh-questions in Thetogovela Moro, a Kordofanian language spoken in the Nuba Mountains of Sudan. Moro has both in-situ and ex-situ wh-questions, but exhibits a subject/non-subject asym- metry: while non-subjects may employ either construction, subjects must appear in the ex-situ form.

On the left periphery of ‘optional’ wh-in-situ: Evidence from Greek [PDF]

Quaderni di Linguistica e Studi Orientali
A recent generalization about ‘optional’ wh-in-situ states that wh-in-situ questions are blocked in selected contexts, where the only grammatical option is wh-fronting.

Restrictions on wh-in situ in Kavalan and Amis [PDF]

Lingua, 2016
This paper investigates the grammatical properties of wh-in situ constructions in Kavalan and Amis, two Austronesian languages in Taiwan. In Kavalan, wh-phrases cannot stay in situ in the absolutive subject position, except for mayni ‘which’. However, all Amis wh-phrases, regardless of their case marking or grammatical function, can stay in situ.

Processing long-distance wh-dependency in the Kyengsang dialect of Korean: an ERP study [PDF]

Frontiers in Human Neuroscience
Kyengsang Dialect Korean (KDK) is a wh-in-situ language that morphologically distinguishes content (or wh-) and polar questions via sentence-final question particles (QPs).

Ultrafast Chemical Pre‐Sodiation of Pseudocapacitive CaV8O20 Anodes for High‐Performance Sodium‐Ion Capacitors [PDF]

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
An ultrafast (2‐minute), gas‐free chemical pre‐sodiation strategy using Na‐benzophenone is developed to compensate for initial sodium loss in calcium vanadate (CaV8O20). Driven by the Ca2+ ‘spectator effect’, the framework enables highly reversible, quasi‐zero‐strain solid‐solution sodium storage, explicitly bypassing destructive conversion reactions ...

Comparing wh-in-situ and wh-fronting island effects

Linguistics
This article compares the behavior of island sensitivity in overt and covert (in-situ) wh-dependencies in Mandarin Chinese. We applied a factorial experimental design of islandhood to wh-in-situ and wh-fronting sentences across three island types ...

D-linking and the semantics of wh-in-situ [PDF]

Proceedings of the Linguistic Society of America, 2021
Theories of pair-list readings of multiple wh-questions commonly posit an interpretive asymmetry between the fronted and in-situ wh-phrases, where the fronted wh-phrase is argued to function as the sortal key, have a requirement to be interpreted exhaustively, or be obligatorily D-linked.

Syntactic Computation as Labelled Deduction: WH a case study [PDF]

, 2000
This paper addresses the question "Why do WH phenomena occur with the particular cluster of properties observed across languages -- long-distance dependencies, WH-in situ, partial movement constructions, reconstruction, crossover etc." These phenomena ...
