- 23 Feb 2018
TL;DR: This paper examines the predictions of Chomsky’s (2013; 2015) Labeling Algorithm for structures with non-nominative, non-agreeing elements in what looks like a subject position and shows that under certain very restricted circumstances the non-Nominative elements can remain in [Spec, TP].

Numeral Phrases as Subjects and Agreement with Participles and Predicative Adjectives
TL;DR: In this article, the authors analyze the agreement patterns in Polish constructions with quantified subjects and participial/adjectival predicates, focusing on the functional sequence of the extended nominal projection and its role in the syntactic derivation of case.

Binding as agree and index raising: The case of Polish accusative object experiencers
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors consider the binding properties of non-nominative arguments of Polish psychological predicates focusing on accusative Object Experiencers (hence, OE) and propose the concept of binding as (upward) Agree as well as Index Raising (IR), where the head of the anaphoric/pronominal element is (covertly) moved and adjoined to v or T.

A note on the Genitive of Quantification in Polish and derivational phases
TL;DR: In this paper, the status of nominal projections in Polish within the phase theory, with a special reference to the Phase Impenetrability Condition (Chomsky 2000, 2001), was discussed, and an attempt was made to show, on the basis of binding facts and extraction, that internal structure of Polish nominals including possessives does not exactly follow the proposals made in Boskovic (2005, 2009, 2013, 2014) for analogous Serbo-Croatian cases.
