초록

This paper demonstrates that long scrambling is a syntactic operation that takes place in the narrow syntax. The guiding idea is that displacement is motivated (Chomsky 1995, 2000, 2001). To support my argument, I present cases where long scrambling has semantic effects, contrary to the view that scrambling is semantically vacuous (Saito 1989, 1992). Extending Miyagawa (2005a, 2005b), I show that scrambling is feature-driven, and a scrambling feature (i.e., focus) is included in Numeration (Sabel 2001, 2005). The focus feature on T triggers scrambling in both short and long movement. I also argue that long scrambling is an instance of A-movement and the landing site is Spec TP in Korean. Scrambling creates a new A-binder. It is claimed that Spec TP is a scrambling position, not a position for a thematic subject in Korean

Abstract

This paper demonstrates that long scrambling is a syntactic operation that takes place in the narrow syntax. The guiding idea is that displacement is motivated (Chomsky 1995, 2000, 2001). To support my argument, I present cases where long scrambling has semantic effects, contrary to the view that scrambling is semantically vacuous (Saito 1989, 1992). Extending Miyagawa (2005a, 2005b), I show that scrambling is feature-driven, and a scrambling feature (i.e., focus) is included in Numeration (Sabel 2001, 2005). The focus feature on T triggers scrambling in both short and long movement. I also argue that long scrambling is an instance of A-movement and the landing site is Spec TP in Korean. Scrambling creates a new A-binder. It is claimed that Spec TP is a scrambling position, not a position for a thematic subject in Korean
