Syntax of Scope


Add your own review!

Overview

""Syntax of Scope"" takes up the issue of relative operator scope in generative grammar and offers a comparative study of quantifiers and interrogative ""wh""-operators. The authors argue that the interaction of these operators is constrained by two principles: a minimum binding requirement and a scope principle. These principles are shown to provide a unified account for the cross-linguistic similarities and variations in the interaction of operators. The authors presents a comprehensive, contrastive study of operators of English and Mandarin Chinese and extend their investigation to Japanese in the last chapter.
