<p>utrecht</p> <p><b>New page</b></p><div>'''Gamma-marking''' is a mechanism which assigns the feature [+gamma] to empty categories that are [[properly governed]]. For chains terminating in an argument position, it is assumed that gamma-marking takes place at S-structure, while for chains terminating in a non-argument position it is assumed to take place at LF. EC's that are not properly governed receive the feature [-gamma] by default. In this way, applying the [[ECP]] means checking whether an EC has the feature [+gamma] at LF.<br /> <br /> === Link ===<br /> <br /> [http://www2.let.uu.nl/UiL-OTS/Lexicon/zoek.pl?lemma=Gamma-marking&amp;lemmacode=713 Utrecht Lexicon of Linguistics]<br /> <br /> === References ===<br /> <br /> * Chomsky, N. 1986b.
