Clausal Types and Interrogatives
In addition to the subject-auxiliary inversion, wh-
questions are introduced by one of the
interrogative words such as who, what, which or
where. The wh-phrases formed from these wh words
have a variety of functions in the clause. For
example, they can be the subject, object,
oblique complement, or even an adjunct:
a. [Who] called the police?
b. [Which version] did they recommend?
c. [With what] did the baby eat the food?
Movement vs. Feature Percolation
• The wh-phrase who is originally in the object
position of recommend and then moved to the
specifier position of the intermediate phrase C0.
The auxiliary verb will is also moved from the V
position to the C.
The notations such as NP/NP (read as ‘NP slash NP’) or S/NP
(‘S slash NP’) here mean that the category to the left of the
slash is incomplete and missing one NP. This missing
information is percolated up to the point where it meets its
filler who. There is thus no notion of movement here, but
just a feature percolation up to the point where the missing
gap meets its filler.
Non-subject Wh-questions
Each of these three lexical entries will then generate
sentences like the following:
a. John put the books in a box.
b. Which books did John put in the box?
c. Where did John put the books?
Subject Wh-Questions
a. Who put the book in the box?
b. Who DID put the book in the box?
c. Who can put the book in the box?
Indirect Questions
a. John asks [whose book his son likes ].
 Non-Wh Indirect Questions
a. I don’t know [whether/if I should agree].
 Infinitival Indirect Questions
a. Fred knows [which politician to support].
