초록

This study claims that nominal phrases and wh-words derive the focus movement and we have observed and explained the related examples. The assertion of Lizzi (1997) and Miyagawa (2010) are the theoretical background of this study. It has been said that wh-words inherently have focal characteristics and appear in a focused position in some languages (for example, Hungarian and Malaylam). We have observed the evidence of the overt movement of the noun phrase in these languages. As a result, I have suggested that focus is located on the left side or on the periphery of the verb and its movement is derived into higher FocP out of vP.

Abstract

This study claims that nominal phrases and wh-words derive the focus movement and we have observed and explained the related examples. The assertion of Lizzi (1997) and Miyagawa (2010) are the theoretical background of this study. It has been said that wh-words inherently have focal characteristics and appear in a focused position in some languages (for example, Hungarian and Malaylam). We have observed the evidence of the overt movement of the noun phrase in these languages. As a result, I have suggested that focus is located on the left side or on the periphery of the verb and its movement is derived into higher FocP out of vP.
