Abstract

This paper is an investigation of the direct relationship between morphological richness and the preposition-stranding (im)possibility. The (im)possibility in preposition stranding or in pied- piping of a preposition is directly related to the richness of morphological case. The basic assumption is that, the richer the morphology of a language is, the less a preposition can be stranded. It is because the function of a preposition is assumed to license the morphological case of its object, besides assigning the abstract case. It is also argued that the rise of the split infinitive is attributed to the disappearance of the infinitival ending -enne/-anne. The non-occurrence of the split infinitive in OE and early ME is due to the same reason for the impossibility of the preposition stranding. To(still analyzed as a preposition) and its complement(still analyzed as a nominal element) were sticked together due to the strong adhesiveness between to and its complement, evidenced by the nominal ending -enne/-anne. Meanwhile, the split infinitive was introduced with the weakened bondage between to and its complement as a result of the disappearance of the -enne ending in Middle English. This article will convince us that the loss or weakening of morphological cases is at least a prerequisite and necessary condition for P-stranding and split-infinitives, even if it is not proved be the necessary and sufficient condition for it.
