The Grammar of Q (eBook, PDF)

Q-Particles, Wh-Movement, and Pied-Piping

• Format: PDF

Produktbeschreibung

The Grammar of Q puts forth a novel syntactic and semantic analysis of wh-questions, one that is based upon in-depth study of the Tlingit language, an endangered and under-documented language of North America. A major consequence of this new approach is that the phenomenon classically dubbed "pied-piping" does not actually exist.
