Abstract
The Linguistic Association of Korea Journal, 12(3), 43-57. I take up two potential diagnostics of syntactic movement (i.e. island effects and intervention effects) in this paper. Unlike English, there is no island effect except for an island arising from the Wh-island Constraint in Japanese and Korean. Furthermore, unlike Hagstrom's (1998) analysis of Japanese wh-questions, there is no intervention effect in Korean. So, I adopt an alternative approach to these problems which the movement analyses are unable to deal with. I propose that Korean wh-words should be considered as pure indefinite pronouns void of an inherent interrogative or an inherent quantifier operator feature along the lines of Kuroda (1965), Nishigauchi (1990), Li (1992), Aoun and Li (1993a,b,c), Cheng (1991), Tsai (1994, 1999), and Kim (2000). Furthermore, I also propose that, unlike English, in Korean the operator feature is base-generated as one of the features in Cs, and the link between Cs and wh-words is determined by binding rather than movement.
