초록
In this paper, by arguing that Korean (sub)comparatives exhibit no cross-over (SCO/WCO) effects, unlike English (sub)comparatives, I suggest that while pied-piping is involved in English comparatives, overt LBE (left-branch extraction) is involved in Korean comparatives, implying that there is a parametric variation in relation to the way the null degree operator undergoes movement. During the discussion, I also show that exhibiting long-distance dependency and island effects, Korean comparatives involve null degree operator movement, like English comparatives, while Korean comparatives exhibit no identity condition effects, unlike English comparatives.
Abstract
In this paper, by arguing that Korean (sub)comparatives exhibit no cross-over (SCO/WCO) effects, unlike English (sub)comparatives, I suggest that while pied-piping is involved in English comparatives, overt LBE (left-branch extraction) is involved in Korean comparatives, implying that there is a parametric variation in relation to the way the null degree operator undergoes movement. During the discussion, I also show that exhibiting long-distance dependency and island effects, Korean comparatives involve null degree operator movement, like English comparatives, while Korean comparatives exhibit no identity condition effects, unlike English comparatives.
