    I am most indebted to Noam Chomsky for his comments, patience, and constant encouragement. Thanks are also due to Z˘eljko Bos˘kovic´, Howard Lasnik, Juan Uriagereka, Halldo´r A´rmann Sigurðsson, Christer Platzack, Anders Holmberg, Adolfo Ausi´n, an anonymous Studia Linguistica reviewer, and the audience of the 14th Comparative Germanic Syntax Conference (Lund, January 1999) for important comments and suggestions. A preliminary report of this research appears in Boeckx 1998b.

  • Descrição: Verb agreement with a nominative element is severely constrained in Icelandic when a Quirky “subject” is present: only partial (number, not person) agreement obtains. This paper tries to account for this restriction in terms of Bonet's 1994 Person‐Case‐Constraint, which blocks ‘object’ person agreement when agreement with a dative element takes place. I put forward the idea that agreement obtains with Quirky subjects, but fails to show up morphologically on the verb for non‐syntactic reasons. The analysis is extended to other languages, which allows me to address the issue of the nature of Quirky Case, and of inherent Case more generally.
