Description |
The morphosyntax of wh-in situ in Northern Italian Dialects (NIDs) has been the subject of a long debate. Over the years, two major derivations have been proposed: one that takes NIDs to license wh-‘in situ’ through movement into a left peripheral specifier (Poletto & Pollock 2000 and further developments, Munaro et al. 2001), and one that takes Northern Italian sentence-internal wh-phrases to be unmoved (Manzini & Savoia 2005 and related works).
