Rethinking the nature of nominative case ...

Abstract:
In this squib, we investigate the nature of nominative and accusative case in Greek from a cross-linguistic perspective in the light of recent discussion on the modes of case assignment, see Baker (2008; 2015), Bobaljik (2008), Zeijlstra (2012), Preminger (2014), a.o. We focus on Baker’s (2008; 2015) typology of Case and Agreement systems asking the question of where Greek is situated in this typology. We argue that while accusative (acc) fits in the system, qualifying as dependent case on the basis of Baker’s (2015) criteria, nominative (nom) is more problematic. On the one hand, Greek nom behaves like unmarked case and is clearly not assigned under agreement with T in a number of environments. On the other hand, however, agreement always goes with nom when both are present. Crucially, the language pervasively shows long-distance chains involving a single in situ nom subject and many T heads fully agreeing with it. This is incompatible with Baker’s (2008) agreement and case typology. Building on Alexiadou ...
