As an hpsg novice can I ask how Andreas Kathol's example is handled: (1) Ein [NOM] Fehler unterlaufen ist ihr noch nie. `A mistake has never yet happened to her'. My question is how hpsg allows the subject to combine with the verb before the complement does. We've recently been discussing similar examples on the next-door neighbour list, dg. Interesting to see them coming up here too. Can anyone point me to a good discussion of the facts (apart from Hans Uszkoreit's very helpful 1987 paper)? ============================================================================ Prof Richard Hudson Tel: +44 171 387 7050 ext 3152 E-mail: r.hudson@ling.ucl.ac.uk Dept. of Phonetics and Linguistics Tel: +44 171 380 7172 Fax: +44 171 383 4108 UCL Gower Street London WC1E 6BT UK
