Predicate doubling by phonological copying

In this paper, I argue for an approach to copy constructions in syntax that does not rely on the Copy eory of Movement; rather, it employs copy operations as in standard cases of reduplication. As a preliminary case study, I consider predicate doubling constructions in (two varieties of) German, Hebrew, and Asante Twi. I argue that the choice between copying and do support in predicate doubling constructions can be reduced to the order of the two operations Move
