This volume brings together recent work in generative syntax on "correlative relative constructions." Greatly expanding on the Hindi-oriented scope of previous studies, it describes and analyzes correlative constructions in a range of languages, such as Basque, Dutch, Hungarian, Polish, Sanskrit, Serbo-Croatian and Tibetan, in comparison to correlativization in Hindi. The articles zoom in on three areas of interest: firstly, the similarities and differences between correlatives and other wh- and relative constructions; secondly, the derivation of correlative constructions and the position correlative clauses occupy in the host clause and thirdly, the matching effects that characterize the pairings between relative phrases and demonstrative phrases. The studies presented here will appeal to researchers and students with an interest in syntax in general and relativization strategies in particular.

Correlational Comparison in English available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Abstract: This dissertation proposes a novel analysis of the syntax and semantics of Comparative Correlative sentences in English such as the bigger they are, the harder they fall or the faster we drive, the sooner we'll get there. The analysis is cast in a framework that distinguishes between argument structure and word order, called Pheno-Tecto-Differentiated Categorial Grammar. The analysis fares better than past analyses at meeting the benchmarks set out by previous authors, and it also accounts for the new benchmarks presented here. These new benchmarks include a demonstration of the inherently proportional quantificational force in the the that begins a Comparative Correlative and new data showing that these kinds of sentences cannot appear with a full range of adverbs of quantification, unlike conditionals.
