Thank you! I have a question. Whats the property that "all" has and that can make it stay there in VoiceP. Why doesnt it raise along with "the men" altogether
There are a number of possibilities here. The simplest reason would be that DP and QP have different case marking requirements. The D head requires case, so it has to move. The "all" (Q), does't require case so it can strand. In the cases where it does move it "Pied pipes", which is a property familiar from wh-movement, where a preposition can either move with the wh-phrase or be stranded (To whom did you give the book vs. Who did you give the book to). The preposition can "pied pipe" up with the element requiring wh-checking or it can be stranded. The All in Quantifier float might have the same properties, it can pied pipe or it can be stranded. There's a vast lit on Pied piping.
You’re a lifesaver, thank you!
Thank you so much for your videos!!!
Bravo, professor!
