Here I would like to suggest that the two analyses proposed in the literature should not be seen as competing analyses for a single construction, but as complementary analyses for two distinct nonrestrictive constructions; what I will call the “integrated” and “non-integrated” construction, respectively. Some languages (among which Italian and other Romance languages) display both. Other languages display only one. As suggested below, northern Italian dialects (and possibly Chinese and Japanese) have just the sentence grammar, or “integrated”, nonrestrictive; others (English and Romanian) only the discourse grammar, or “non-integrated”, one. Still others lack nonrestrictives entirely.

Abstract
Here I would like to suggest that the two analyses proposed in the literature should not be seen as competing analyses for a single construction, but as complementary analyses for two distinct nonrestrictive constructions; what I will call the “integrated” and “non-integrated” construction, respectively. Some languages (among which Italian and other Romance languages) display both. Other languages display only one. As suggested below, northern Italian dialects (and possibly Chinese and Japanese) have just the sentence grammar, or “integrated”, nonrestrictive; others (English and Romanian) only the discourse grammar, or “non-integrated”, one. Still others lack nonrestrictives entirely.File | Dimensione | Formato | |
