False ideas are discarded (e.g., there are no relative clauses, does not take over ' functions). This essay furthermore teases apart actual neutralization and so-far-unknown subtle distinctions. Who knew that is featured in three different types of appositive clauses? In the interrogative domain, an analysis is given of what licenses to pop in and to pop out. Tackling these topics and more, this essay draws a coherent picture of the wh-clause system, whose basis is the notion of (non)identification SN - 978-90-04-46752-1 kovakantinen SN - 9004467521 SN - ebook KW - Greek language : Syntax KW - Greek language : Relative clauses KW - Greek language : Interrogative KW - Greek language : Exclamations ER -
