This paper explores an alternative way of structure building inminimalism and proposes that along with other operations in NarrowSyntax such as Feature-Inheritance and Transfer, structure building isalso initiated only by phase heads. Consequently, this paper takes onestep further Chomsky’s (2007, 2008, 2013) generalization that alloperations in Narrow Syntax are restricted to the phase level. It furtherinvestigates the implications of phase-head initiated structure buildingfor the motivations for Feature-Inheritance and Transfer (Chomsky 2007,2008, Richards 2007) and shows 1) that no derivation can converge at theC-I interface without Feature-Inheritance (i.e., Feature-Inheritance isnecessitated to satisfy interface conditions) and 2) that the operationTransfer is a natural by-product of (Internal) Merge.
