초록

In this paper, we will show that multiple subject positions can also be found in the locative inversion construction(LIC) in English and Korean, associated with specificity feature of the subject. For this purpose, we will show that LIC and the inverted presentational there construction are basically the same construction, the only difference being that the subject position is occupied by a null expletive pro in the former, but by the overt expletive there in the latter. After that, we will show that the null pro and the expletive there occupy SpecTP and the fronted PP raises to SpecTopP via SpecFinP, and that the mixed subject and non-subject properties that the fronted PP displays can be reconciled under our analysis. We also argue that Korean has a limited number of LICs and the locative subject construction, which forms a multiple nominative construction, is one of the examples. We will show that LIC in Korean is derived exactly like LIC in English except that the former lacks a null expletive pro or an overt expletive there in SpecSubjP

Abstract

In this paper, we will show that multiple subject positions can also be found in the locative inversion construction(LIC) in English and Korean, associated with specificity feature of the subject. For this purpose, we will show that LIC and the inverted presentational there construction are basically the same construction, the only difference being that the subject position is occupied by a null expletive pro in the former, but by the overt expletive there in the latter. After that, we will show that the null pro and the expletive there occupy SpecTP and the fronted PP raises to SpecTopP via SpecFinP, and that the mixed subject and non-subject properties that the fronted PP displays can be reconciled under our analysis. We also argue that Korean has a limited number of LICs and the locative subject construction, which forms a multiple nominative construction, is one of the examples. We will show that LIC in Korean is derived exactly like LIC in English except that the former lacks a null expletive pro or an overt expletive there in SpecSubjP
