초록

Multiple-sluicing in Chinese falls into two types: pseudo multiple-sluicing and typical multiple-sluicing. In the former, the two simplex wh-arguments have the basic structure of ‘pro + shi ‘be’ + wh-phrase’ and are coordinated by a covert conjunction word. Typical multiple-sluicing can be found in the following three forms: the first one includes two discourse-linked wh-arguments, the second consists of two complex wh-adjuncts and the third is composed of a discourse-linked wh-argument and a complex wh-adjunct. This article argues that while no overt wh-movement is involved in the derivation of pseudo multiple-sluicing, typical multiple-sluicing does. Specifically, topic- prominent wh-phrases and focus-prominent wh-phrases move to [Spec, TopP] and [Spec, FocP] respectively, and a subsequent deletion of IP at PF derives a well-formed typical multiple-sluicing.

Abstract

Multiple-sluicing in Chinese falls into two types: pseudo multiple-sluicing and typical multiple-sluicing. In the former, the two simplex wh-arguments have the basic structure of ‘pro + shi ‘be’ + wh-phrase’ and are coordinated by a covert conjunction word. Typical multiple-sluicing can be found in the following three forms: the first one includes two discourse-linked wh-arguments, the second consists of two complex wh-adjuncts and the third is composed of a discourse-linked wh-argument and a complex wh-adjunct. This article argues that while no overt wh-movement is involved in the derivation of pseudo multiple-sluicing, typical multiple-sluicing does. Specifically, topic- prominent wh-phrases and focus-prominent wh-phrases move to [Spec, TopP] and [Spec, FocP] respectively, and a subsequent deletion of IP at PF derives a well-formed typical multiple-sluicing.
