I claim that head movement is not an appropriate mechanism either to explain possible and impossible morphological combinations, or to account for information flow within words. This view is supported by facts of syntactic selection, which provides evidence against the postulation of functional categories such as I(nfl) and C(omp). I present an alternative view of the morphology and its projection into the syntax founded on the principle of lexical integrity and the idea of unification of information, and a theory of syntactic formation in terms of the new notion of "combinatoric TYPE."}, number = {2}, journal = {Linguistic inquiry}, author = {Sells, Peter}, year = {1995}, keywords = {Syntax, Honorifics, Japanese language, Korean language, Linguistic morphology, Linguistic theory, Linguistics, Morphemes, morphology, Nouns, Suffixes, Syntactics, Theoretical points.

Answering this question and many others, this book provides an essential guide to the syntactic structure of German. It examines the systematic differences between German and English, which follow from this basic difference in sentence structure, and presents the main results of syntactic research on German. Topics covered include the strict word order in VO vs word order variation in OV, verb clustering, clause union effects, obligatory functional subject position, and subject-object asymmetries for extractions. Through this, a cross-model and cross-linguistic comparison evolves, highlighting the immediate implications for non-Germanic OV languages, and creating a detailed and comprehensive description of the syntactic differences that immediately follow from an OV type in contrast with a VO type like English. It will be of interest to all those interested in syntax and Germanic languages.}, publisher = {Cambridge University Press}, author = {Haider, Hubert}, year = {2010}, }
