- Title
Chomsky's (2020) Links and linker phenomena.
- Authors
Manzini, M. Rita
- Abstract
In Section 1, I present a recent formalisation of modification and conjunction structures by Chomsky (2020), in terms of sequences of Pair-Merge units, each including a Link element identified with the nominaliser/verbaliser n/v. In Sections 2-3, I argue that the Link element is overtly visible in many languages in the form of (adnominal) linkers. In Section 4, I suggest that Case stacking, and Concord may also be viewed as externalizations of Links.
