Miyagawa (2005, 2006, forthcoming) suggests that differences between "agreement" languages and "agreement-less" languages stem from different parametric valuation of a super feature (Fs) on C either as Φ-feature agreement or as focus agreement. A language like Korean, however, constitutes an interesting example in that it employs not only Φ-feature agreement but also focus and topic agreement, as essential agreement features to derive the mixed properties of subject prominence, focus prominence, and topic prominence. Grounded on these Korean facts, I will argue that languages cannot be strictly divided into "agreement" languages and "agreement-less" languages, and that the apparent differences in the aspects of agreement are due to the interplay of feature inheritance and EPP parametrization.
Abstract
Miyagawa (2005, 2006, forthcoming) suggests that differences between "agreement" languages and "agreement-less" languages stem from different parametric valuation of a super feature (Fs) on C either as Φ-feature agreement or as focus agreement.

Grounded on these Korean facts, I will argue that languages cannot be strictly divided into "agreement" languages and "agreement-less" languages, and that the apparent differences in the aspects of agreement are due to the interplay of feature inheritance and EPP parametrization.
