The Syntax of Conjoined Wh-elements in English

  This paper explores an alternative analysis of what Giannakidou and Merchant (1998) call reverse sluicing in English. I first argue against Giannakidou and Merchant"s proposal on the phenomenon, which states that apparent coordination of if/whether and a wh-adjunct results from IP-deletion or sluicing in the first conjunct clause. I rather pursue a Right Node Raising (RNR) analysis of the phenomenon. In particular, examining several pieces of supporting evidence I argue that surface coordination of the edges in the two CP"s is derived from "right node raising" of the first-conjunct IP.
