In this paper, we provide a comprehensive account of the phenomenon of topicalizing verb particles in German. Based on the data we discuss, we argue that only a version of the Split-CP hypothesis for the German clause can account for the observations. Section 1 critiques previous accounts of particle topicalization and discusses some properties of particles that are potentially relevant to topicalization. We conclude that a particle’s ability to be topicalized depends more on its ability to be contrasted with other particles than on the semantic autonomy of the particle per se. Section 2 discusses unexpected cases of non-contrastable particles in the left periphery. In this context, we introduce a previously unnoticed phenomenon in which particle verbs denoting strongly emotionally evaluated situations allow their particles to be topicalized, even if the particle does not receive a contrastive interpretation. In Sect. 3, we show that an elaborated syntax of the German left periphery of the kind argued for in cartographic approaches is uniquely able to predict the distribution of topicalized particles.

分词主题化和德语从句结构

在本文中,我们全面介绍了德语中动词词缀的话题化现象。根据我们讨论的数据,我们认为只有德国条款的 Split-CP 假设的一个版本才能解释这些观察结果。第 1 节批判了先前对粒子主题化的描述,并讨论了可能与主题化相关的粒子的一些特性。我们得出结论,一个粒子的主题化能力更多地取决于它与其他粒子对比的能力,而不是粒子本身的语义自主性。第 2 节讨论了左边缘非对比度粒子的意外情况。在这种情况下,我们引入了一种以前未被注意到的现象,其中表示强烈情绪评估情况的助词动词允许它们的助词被话题化,即使粒子没有得到对比解释。昆虫。3,我们表明,在制图方法中争论的那种德语左边缘的详细语法能够独特地预测局部粒子的分布。
