Locality of QR and Scrambling

다국어 초록 (Multilingual Abstract)

Lee, Hyeran. 2010. Locality of QR and Scrambling. The Linguistic Association of Korea Journal. 18(3). 17-36. This paper aims to analyze the locality of Quantifier Raising (QR), using Scope Economy (Fox 1995, 2000). Johnson (2000) and Miyagawa (2006) who view QR as scrambling are discussed. Johnson's data of English counterparts and Miyagawa's Japanese data of Long-Distance (LD) scrambling and their Korean counterparts are put to test for Scope Economy. It is agreed that QR as an optional operation observes the same locality of scrambling, in particular, German/Dutch scrambling. However, based on Korean/Japanese data, it is argued that QR is different in that it observes Scope Economy in every step of movement while scrambling is subject to output effects of scope-discourse properties by Chomsky (2001, 2008). It is also argued that overt scrambling feeds QR as long as it observes Scope Economy. QR with no feature checking is motivated to satisfy the scope-discourse properties and its distance for raising is constrained by Scope Economy. QR is thus claimed to be an optimal operation at the interface to provide scope properties
