This book provides an account of the structure of A-bar constructions, focusing on
wh
-questions and fragment answers in Dagbani, a Mabia (Gur) language spoken in Northern Ghana. It demonstrates that Dagbani
-phrases occur in two distinct positions,
ex-situ
and
in-situ
, except for subject
-phrases, which only occur in the former position. It provides a theoretical analysis of the distribution of the
-phrases couched within minimalism (Chomsky 1995). Finally, the book gives an account of the structural correlation between
-questions and their answers with the focus on the syntactic derivation of fragment answers. The author contends that the derivation of fragment answer involves two processes: A-bar movement together with PF-deletion
