Edge Features and Multiple Wh-Questions

Building on Chomsky’s (2000) proposal that A’-movement is triggered by an EPP-type of feature added to phase heads and Bošković’s (2007) proposal that the relevant feature is to be found on the moving element itself, Nunes (2020) has argued that these two apparently conflicting views ultimately inst...

He shows that much of the crosslinguistic variation regarding single wh-questions hinges on whether edge features (features that trigger successive cyclic A’-movement) are lexically associated with wh-elements or phase heads and whether the edge features are intrinsically valued or unvalued. In this paper, I extend this approach to multiple wh-questions, showing that these factors also derive the basic typology of multiple wh-questions found in natural languages.Baseado na proposta de Chomsky (2000) de que movimento-A’ é desencadeado por um traço similar ao EPP adicionado a núcleos de fases e na proposta de Bošković (2007) de que o traço desencadeador de movimento se encontra no próprio elemento que se desloca, Nunes (2020) desenvolve uma alternativa em que essas propostas aparentemente conflitantes na verdade concretizam diferentes opções gramaticais disponíveis na GU. Nessa alternativa, grande parte da variação translinguística no que diz respeito a perguntas-wh simples se segue da interação de dois fatores: se os edge features (os traços que desencadeiam movimento-A’) se encontram lexicalmente associados a elementos-wh ou a núcleos de fase e se são intrinsicamente valorados ou não-valorados. Este trabalho estende essa abordagem a perguntas-wh múltiplas, mostrando que a tipologia básica das interrogativas-wh múltiplas encontrada nas línguas naturais também se segue da interação desses fatores.Abralin2021-04-23info:eu-repo/semantics/articleinfo:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersiontext/xmlapplication/pdfhttps://cadernos.abralin.org/index.php/cadernos/article/view/31610.25189/2675-4916.2021.v2.n1.id316Cadernos de Linguística; Vol. 2 No. 1 (2021); e316Cadernos de Linguística; Vol. 2 Núm. 1 (2021); e316Cadernos de Linguística; v. 2 n. 1 (2021); e3162675-4916reponame:Cadernos de Linguísticainstname:Associação Brasileira de Linguística (ABRALIN)instacron:ABRALINenghttps://cadernos.abralin.org/index.php/cadernos/article/view/316/418https://cadernos.abralin.org/index.php/cadernos/article/view/316/422Copyright (c) 2021 Jairo Nunesinfo:eu-repo/semantics/openAccessNunes, Jairo2023-10-25T06:44:53Zoai:ojs3.cadernos.abralin.org:article/316Revistahttps://cadernos.abralin.org/ONGhttps://cadernos.abralin.org/index.php/cadernos/oaiabralin@abralin.org || cadlin@abralin.org13083-8592675-4916opendoar:2023-10-25T06:44:53Cadernos de Linguística - Associação Brasileira de Linguística (ABRALIN)false
