“…This becomes an issue when some constituent (e.g., an adverb or negation) intervenes between Arg 0 and v 0 . 22 For those cases, the literature provides two means of ensuring adjacency: (a) by moving the verb in the syntactic component, as has been traditionally proposed (see also Lechner 2004, Matushansky 2006, Roberts 2010 for recent proposals along these lines), or (b) by moving the verb postsyntactically (see, e.g., Chomsky 2000, Boeckx and Stjepanović 2001, Zwart 2001, Platzack 2012). Since our proposal does not hinge on the correctness of either approach and is fully compatible with both, we are not forced to make a principled choice.…”
