Video 10.1 V to T Movement
Various challenges for X-bar theory are explored. French adverbs and negation and VSO order in Irish are highlights. Carnie shows that these are best explained if you claim there is an operation that moves tensed verbs into T. Also explored is the issue of VoiceP internal subjects and how they address the issue of post verbal subjects in VSO languages and quantifier float in English.
