This paper argues that the syntactic behavior of expletive it can be accounted for, in the Minimalist Program (Chomsky 1995), especially by the operation Copy and Merge. I adopt Hazout's (2004) theory about the generation of expletives and Nunes's (2001) minimalist technique, so called sideward movement. Focusing on expletive it in the psych verb construction, I show how to explain the occurrence of expletive it in the ɵ-marked position. I also discuss agreement and numeration issues in the Minimalist framework with respect to expletive it.

I also discuss agreement and numeration issues in the Minimalist framework with respect to expletive it.
