This paper studies the structure and origin of prenominal and postnominal restrictive relative clauses in Pharasiot Greek. Though both patterns are finite and introduced by the invariant complementizer tu, they differ in two important respects. First, corpus data reveal that prenominal relatives are older than their postnominal counterparts. Second, in the present-day language only prenominal relatives involve a matching derivation, whereas postnominal ones behave like Head-raising structures. Turning to diachrony, we suggest that prenominal relatives came into being through morphological fusion of a determiner t- with an invariant complementizer u. This process entailed a reduction of functional structure in the left periphery of the relative clause, to the effect that the landing site for a raising Head was suppressed, leaving a matching derivation as the only option. Postnominal relatives are analyzed as borrowed from Standard Modern Greek. Our analysis corroborates the idea that both raising and matching derivations for relatives must be acknowledged, sometimes even within a single language.

Pharasiot 希腊语关系从句中的提升和匹配：历时重建

本文研究了Pharasiot希腊语中名前和名后限制性关系从句的结构和起源。尽管这两种模式都是有限的，并且由不变补码器引入涂，它们在两个重要方面有所不同。首先，语料库数据显示，名前亲属比名后亲属年长。其次，在今天的语言中，只有前名亲属涉及匹配派生，而后名亲属表现得像抬头结构。转向历时性，我们建议通过限定词的形态融合产生名词前亲属吨- 使用不变的补码你。这个过程需要减少关系从句左侧外围的功能结构，从而抑制了抬起头的着陆点，留下匹配的推导作为唯一的选择。后称亲属被分析为从标准现代希腊语中借来的。我们的分析证实了这样一种观点，即必须承认亲属的培养和匹配派生，有时甚至在一种语言中也是如此。
