Matching Effects and the Syntax-Morphology Interface: Evidence from Hindi-Urdu Correlatives

The question I address in this paper is whether information about morphological illformedness is available for the purposes of economy computations in syntax. The kind of morphological illformedness I consider here is of a superficial kind ‐ the wellformedness/illformedness in the relevant constructions depends upon the actual phonological forms of the relevant entities. The construction examined here is the free relative constructions and the entities involved are the case assigned from inside the free relative clause and the case assigned from outside (from the matrix clause). I provide evidence from Hindi correlatives to the effect that information about (surface) morphological illformedness is not available for the purposes of economy computations in syntax.
