- Title
ACCESSIBILITY TO RELATIVIZATION IN ARABIC NON-FINITE SYNTAX.
- Authors
Drozdík, Ladislav
- Abstract
The aim of the present inquiry lies in examining syntactic positions that non-finite relative constructions are able to relativize, that is, their accessibility to relativization or, in short, their relativizability. The range of relativizable positions in non-finite constructions is confronted with that of the finite relatives. The confrontation of two structurally differing strategies, non-finite (NFR) and finite relativization (FR), entails the task of introducing a unified system of reference and to legitimate the clausal identity of both relative constructions on the basis of an all-inclusive definition of relative clause (RC).
