Deriving Tags in Split Questions: Deletion and pro = Deriving Tags in Split Questions: Deletion and pro

다국어 초록 (Multilingual Abstract)

This paper aims at defending. a PF deletion account for split question (SQ) constructions. SQ constructions are composed of a wh-part and a tag, which are taken to be two separate question clauses. Arregi (2010) analyzes Spanish, Basque, and English SQ constructions and proposes a PF deletion account for these constructions. Ha (2010), on the other hand, proposes a cyclic copying account for Korean SQ constructions, based on the discussion of predicate containing tags. After examining Korean SQ constructions, with special emphasis on the predicate containing tags, this paper first shows that there are serious problems for the cyclic copying account for the predicate containing cases. As a next step, it is shown that the predicate containing tags are not genuine SQ constructions and hence cannot be used as evidence against the PF deletion account of the SQ constructions. This paper provides a pro-based alternative account for the predicate containing cases and consequently, shows that the PF deletion account for the SQ constructions can be maintained.
