| Abstract(in English) | The present study points out a critical issue of the labeling theory (Chomsky 2013) where it undergenerates. It fails to predict the grammaticality of long-distance agreement, a phenomenon that has been attested in many languages such as English, Icelandic and Kaqchikel. A revision of the theory is proposed, which successfully accounts for the data that the original theory failed to explain. Furthermore, the revision parallels a previous proposal by Saito (2016) and suggests that agreement and case are two different ways to resolve the problem of projection. |
