Abstract

In (1), the subject NP is coindexed with the missing object of the embedded predicate. This connectivity is unbounded because there is in principle no bound on the depth of embedding of the missing object. In Korean, a group of adjectives that is semantically similar to English tough predicates shows the same dependency. This group includes himtulta ‘tough’, ’swipta ‘easy’, elyepta ‘hard’, pulkanunghata ‘impossible’, etc., and examples are given in (/refexa).
