초록
This paper examines the asymmetry of NP-movement and WH-movement. In the double object construction, the indirect object is subject to NP-movement and the direct object is not subject to NP-movement. However, the direct object is subject to WH-movement and the indirect object is not subject to WH-movement. The formal analysis does not provide satisfactory account of the asymmetry. Therefore, I propose the functional analysis in order to explain the asymmetry more properly. For the functional analysis, I introduce the functional notion such as topic and focus. The direct object is not passivized by NP-movement, because the indirect object is more topical than the direct object. On the other hand, the indirect object is not moved by WH-movement, because the indirect object is not focused on. Therefore, the grammaticality of the constructions which undergo NP-movement and WH-movement depends on functional aspects such as topic and focus. (Shingyeong University)
Abstract
This paper examines the asymmetry of NP-movement and WH-movement. In the double object construction, the indirect object is subject to NP-movement and the direct object is not subject to NP-movement. However, the direct object is subject to WH-movement and the indirect object is not subject to WH-movement. The formal analysis does not provide satisfactory account of the asymmetry. Therefore, I propose the functional analysis in order to explain the asymmetry more properly. For the functional analysis, I introduce the functional notion such as topic and focus. The direct object is not passivized by NP-movement, because the indirect object is more topical than the direct object. On the other hand, the indirect object is not moved by WH-movement, because the indirect object is not focused on. Therefore, the grammaticality of the constructions which undergo NP-movement and WH-movement depends on functional aspects such as topic and focus. (Shingyeong University)
