This work discusses the syntactic properties of
nominals in Turkish, their Case properties and the
implications of a theory of grammar in which the
dislocation of arguments is not motivated by the
Extended Projection Principle (EPP), but by
structural Case checking. It is proposed that Turkish
referential nominals possess a Determiner Phrase (DP)
layer where Dº assigns referentiality. DP is argued
to select a Number Phrase (NumP)/Classifer Phrase
(ClP) both subcategorizing for an NP. Non-referential
nominals are argued to be bare NPs without the
functional categories that referential nominals bear.
It is argued that DPs undergo dislocation from their
base-generated positions to Spec positions of higher
functional heads with which they form a -Agree
relation, whereas NPs remain in their merge
positions. In terms of Case properties, NPs bear weak
Case feature and they undergo adhesion to the verb to
be licensed; whereas DPs bear strong Case feature. It
is argued that the analysis where dislocation is
motivated by the EPP feature of the functional heads
faces economy problems. This study claims that it is
the strong Case feature of nominals which forces them
to undergo dislocation.
