Outline of Final Research Achievements |
Agreement is unique to human language. In this sense, it would be an important task to characterize properties of the phenomena and contribute to articulation of the linguistic theory. This study investigated partial realization of agreement under the labeling algorithm proposed by Chomsky (2013, 2014). It provided empirical support for the claim that part of agreement phenomena can be reduced to some properties of structure building. More specifically, the Spec-Head relation in a traditional sense should be treated in terms of feature-sharing relations.
