Linearizing multidominance structures
Year: 2013
Type: book-chapter
Abstract: A multidominance (MD) structure is a structure where at least one node has more than one mother node. Sentences that involve Right-Node Raising (RNR), like (1), have been proposed to have an MD representation in (2), where the object DP an article on Barack Obama is simultaneously dominated by two mother nodes: VP1 and VP2 (Bachrach and Katzir 2006; Levine 1985; McCawley 1982; McCloskey 1986; Moltmann 1992; Muadz 1991; Wilder 1999). The multiply dominated DP is said to be shared between the two VPs and all the nodes that dominate them.
