Video 9.2: Auxiliaries

This video takes another look at the English Auxiliary system and takes an alternative approach to the representation of T, Aspect and Voice in the language. Rather than using affix-hopping, Carnie shows how you can use theta grids to get the same effect. He introduced the [+V] and [Form] features which can replace the operation of affix-lowering/hopping and the stipulative need for morphological readjustment rules. As an added benefit, this model correctly puts the auxiliaries in the right order.
