How can a Verb Agree with a Verb? Reanalysis and Pseudocoordination in Norwegian

Helge Lødrup

Abstract

Link to pdf of paper

Anward (1988) and Wiklund (2007) argue that there is verbal feature agreement in Swedish, and that this phenomenon can be found in (at least) two groups of sentences, pseudocoordinations and reanalysis sentences. Norwegian is close to Swedish concerning the relevant data, and this paper is based upon Norwegian. It will be shown that when relevant data are considered, there are two different kinds of verbal feature agreement, which require different grammatical treatment.
