Merge: Binarity in (Multidominant) Syntax Citko, Barbara; Gracanın Yüksek, Martına (The MIT Press, Cambridge (MA), USA , 2021-02-01) An argument that Merge is binary but its binarity refers to syntactic positions rather than objects. In this book, Barbara Citko and Martina Gračanin-Yuksek examine the constraints on Merge—the basic structure-building op...
Conjunction saves multiple sluicing: How *(and) why? Citko, Barbara; Gracanın Yüksek, Martına (Ubiquity Press, Ltd., 2020) Our goal in this paper is to analyze coordinated wh-sluicing in English and compare its properties to the properties of multiple sluicing, coordinated wh-questions and coordinated clefts.

Zaman Gösteren Tümcelerin İkinci Dilde Edinimi: “before” ve “after” Gracanın Yüksek, Martına; Kırkıcı, Bilal (null; 2018-05-04)
The Interaction of Contextual and Syntactic Information in the Processing of Turkish Anaphors Gracanın Yüksek, Martına; Safak, Duygu Fatma; Demir, Orhan; Kırkıcı, Bilal (2017-12-01) In contrast with languages where anaphors can be classified into pronouns and reflexives, Turkish has a tripartite system that consists of the anaphors o, kendi, and kendisi. The syntactic literature on these anaphors has ...
Conjoined wh-questions Gracanın Yüksek, Martına (John Wiley & Sons, West Sussex, UK , 2017-11-01) Many languages, in addition to ordinary multiple wh-questions, have a construction in which two or more wh-phrases appear to be coordinated at the left periphery of the clause. This construction is referred to as a conjoin...
