| dc.description.abstract | This paper attempts to describe complements of Awinr i verbs following the X-Bar Theory of phrase structure rules of Jackendoff (1977), Chomsky (1981,1986) and Radford (1981) . The theory claims that in all natural languages, the major lexical categories, that is, nouns, verbs, adjectives and prepositions have similar complement structures and levels of projection. 'fhe study shows that verbs in this language take A"', N' ", P'" and CPs at V'; VPadverbials at V" ; and parentheticals at V" '. This is consistent with the claim of the theory. The position of the head in relation to its complement i s a lways final which fixes the parameter of Awingi as a head-final language. | en_US |
