&lt;p&gt;&lt;b&gt;New page&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;div&gt;'''Tough-movement''' is the kind of [[movement]] that has been assumed in the [[derivation]] of [[sentence]]s such as (i), which are headed by [[predicate]]s like ''tough'' and ''easy''.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
 (i)    John is easy to please&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
If the [[adjective]] ''easy'' assigns no [[external theta-role]], one is led (by the [[theta-criterion]]) to assume that the subject ''John'' has been moved out of the object position e&amp;lt;sub&amp;gt;i &amp;lt;/sub&amp;gt;of please:&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
 (ii)  *John&amp;lt;sub&amp;gt;i &amp;lt;/sub&amp;gt;is easy [&amp;lt;sub&amp;gt;CP&amp;lt;/sub&amp;gt; PRO to please e&amp;lt;sub&amp;gt;i &amp;lt;/sub&amp;gt;]&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
However, such an analysis is excluded, either as a case of [[improper movement]], or as a [[binding]] violation. As a solution it has been proposed that ''John'' in (i) is an argument of the adjective ''easy'', and that the CP is a modifying adjunct:&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
 (iii)  John&amp;lt;sub&amp;gt;i &amp;lt;/sub&amp;gt; is easy [&amp;lt;sub&amp;gt;CP&amp;lt;/sub&amp;gt; O&amp;lt;sub&amp;gt;i &amp;lt;/sub&amp;gt; [PRO to please e&amp;lt;sub&amp;gt;i &amp;lt;/sub&amp;gt;]]&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The object of ''to please'', then, is a variable bound by the [[empty operator]] O which is coindexed with ''John''. Easy to confuse with [[though-movement]] though it is, it is different.&lt;br /&gt;
