This paper presents an integrated approach to the morphosyntax of the three nominal plural markers of Hungarian: multiplicative -k, possessive -i, and associative plural -ék. It explicates the relationship between the associative and multiplicative plural markers, and between the associative… read more
Dikken, Marcel den and Éva Dékány 2023 The morphosyntax of the Hungarian sociative and dissociative suffixesApproaches to Hungarian 18: Special issue of the Journal of Uralic Linguistics 2:1 (2023), Farkas, Donka F., Gábor Alberti and Balázs Surányi (eds.), pp. 74–95 | Article
This paper examines the morphosyntax of (dis)sociative ‘with(out)’, with particular reference to the facts of Hungarian but with an eye towards universality. The morphological analysis of -stul/stül ‘with’ and -talanul/telenül ‘without’ unpacks these complex forms, utilizing a variety of… read more
Dikken, Marcel den 2022 Ordinals, reflexives and unaccusatives: Unification by predicationApproaches to Hungarian 17: Special issue of the Journal on Uralic Linguistics 1:2 (2022), Halm, Tamás, Elizabeth Coppock and Balázs Surányi (eds.), pp. 215–238 | Article
This paper presents a unified outlook on the syntax of constructions featuring the reflexive clitic se, with particular emphasis on the uniform morphosyntax of the Hungarian element -ik, treated as an exponent of se both in the verbal domain and in the nominal domain (in ordinal numeral… read more
This chapter presents a multi-pronged argument, from a generative syntactic perspective, against the notion of ‘incomplete acquisition,’ centered on subjunctive usage by Spanish heritage speakers in New York City. Special attention is paid to the distribution of the subjunctive in futurate cuando… read more

Abstract In Categorial Grammar, “[t]he combinatorics of long-distance dependencies are steered … by conditions on the state of argument stacks” (Cremers 2004: 99). In this paper I argue that in mainstream Chomskyan syntax, modelling filler-gap dependencies in these terms also works… read more
Tortora, Christina, Marcel den Dikken, Ignacio L.

Dikken, Marcel den 2015 The morphosyntax of (in)alienably possessed noun phrases: The Hungarian contributionApproaches to Hungarian: Volume 14: Papers from the 2013 Piliscsaba Conference, Kiss, Katalin É., Balázs Surányi and Éva Dékány (eds.), pp. 121–145 | Article
This paper argues that there is a fundamental difference between alienable and inalienable possession in the syntax of the noun phrase, and that this difference involves direction of predication. A possessum is the subject of a predicate that is or contains the possessor; the configurational… read more
Dikken, Marcel den 2014 On feature interpretability and inheritanceMinimalism and Beyond: Radicalizing the interfaces, Kosta, Peter, Steven L. Franks, Teodora Radeva-Bork and Lilia Schürcks (eds.), pp. 37–55 | Article
The aim of this paper is to evaluate the theoretical motivations given for feature inheritance, and the workings and distribution thereof. The standard motivations for feature inheritance in the literature are shown not to be tenable. The rationale for feature inheritance given in the literature is… read more
Dikken, Marcel den 2013 Predication and specification in the syntax of cleft sentencesCleft Structures, Hartmann, Katharina and Tonjes Veenstra (eds.), pp. 35–70 | Article
This paper reviews the differences between predicational and specificational copular sentences in the realm of (pseudo-)cleft constructions, and proposes an analysis which treats the it of specificational it-clefts as a pro-predicate that inverts with its subject in the course of the syntactic… read more

Successive-cyclic A'–Cmovement derivations exploiting SpecCP as an intermediate landing-site deserve careful scrutiny. As a companion to Den Dikken’s (2009a) case for a typology of A'–Cdependencies that includes successive-cyclic movement via vP–edges, resumptive prolepsis, and scope marking, but… read more
Dikken, Marcel den and Mariví Blasco 2007 Clitic climbing in Spanish imperativesImperative Clauses in Generative Grammar: Studies in honour of Frits Beukema, Wurff, Wim van der (ed.), pp. 135–152 | Article
In Spanish, the aspectual verbs ‘come’ and ‘go’ allow an object clitic to climb out of their infinitival complement in finite and infinitival contexts but not in simple imperatives. This paper argues that the ban on clitic climbing in simple imperatives with aspectual ‘come’ and ‘go’ (not noted in… read more
