WH-Movement

In this section, the actual working of the anaphoric component will be discussed. We will do this by showing how a linguistic phenomenon like wh-movement could be implemented. Note that none of the linguistics in this section follows from the system. The aim of the discussion is to give an idea of the power of the anaphoric component and of the kinds of linguistics that can be put to use. We will first introduce the linguistic environment and present some data from Spanish that reflect some of the surface phenomena caused by the presence of anaphoric relations. The section on the implementation of the wh-relation will argue that and show how surface phenomena of this nature can be handled deterministically.
