초록

Landau (2022) focuses on the distribution of argument ellipsis in Hebrew. He suggests that argument ellipsis sites contain a pro element and that the pro element is replaced by a constituent recoverable from the antecedent after spell-out but prior to LF. Landau (2022) claims that the derivational replacement of pro accounts for overt sub-extraction in Hebrew. Landau's (2022) argument notes that ellipsis-resisting elements in Korean and Hebrew seem to pattern alike. This squib examines whether Landau’s derivational pro replacement analysis can account for argument ellipsis phenomena in Korean. Despite many similarities between Korean and Hebrew in relation to argument ellipsis phenomena, parallel behavior between null arguments and overt pronouns is observed only in Korean. Furthermore, the impossibility of sub-extraction from a null CP leads us to conclude that Landau’s (2022) pro-replacement analysis cannot be extended to argument ellipsis phenomena in Korean. We further discuss the (un)availability of a mixed reading in clausal argument ellipsis phenomena in Korean. Following Hoji (2003) and Kasai (2014), we suggest that the unavailability of mixed reading in clausal argument ellipsis phenomena in Korean is non-trivial evidence supporting the claim that argument ellipsis phenomena in Korean may not involve an internal structure.

Abstract

Landau (2022) focuses on the distribution of argument ellipsis in Hebrew. He suggests that argument ellipsis sites contain a pro element and that the pro element is replaced by a constituent recoverable from the antecedent after spell-out but prior to LF. Landau (2022) claims that the derivational replacement of pro accounts for overt sub-extraction in Hebrew. Landau's (2022) argument notes that ellipsis-resisting elements in Korean and Hebrew seem to pattern alike. This squib examines whether Landau’s derivational pro replacement analysis can account for argument ellipsis phenomena in Korean. Despite many similarities between Korean and Hebrew in relation to argument ellipsis phenomena, parallel behavior between null arguments and overt pronouns is observed only in Korean. Furthermore, the impossibility of sub-extraction from a null CP leads us to conclude that Landau’s (2022) pro-replacement analysis cannot be extended to argument ellipsis phenomena in Korean. We further discuss the (un)availability of a mixed reading in clausal argument ellipsis phenomena in Korean. Following Hoji (2003) and Kasai (2014), we suggest that the unavailability of mixed reading in clausal argument ellipsis phenomena in Korean is non-trivial evidence supporting the claim that argument ellipsis phenomena in Korean may not involve an internal structure.
