Eliciting focus-sensitive why-questions in Japanese. Aramaki, K., Ikeda, K., Yamakoshi, K., & Fujii, T. In Proceedings of 11th International Conference of Experimental Linguistics, 2020. ExLing Society.
Paper doi abstract bibtex The study argues that in focus-sensitive why-questions in Japanese, why must precede its focus associate. It is proposed that this word order restriction follows if the why-as-CPmodifier approach is applied to the Japanese construction under investigation. It also reports the results of the elicitation experiment conducted to experimentally confirm the word order restriction.
