Keywords: bare singular; incorporation; head-movement
Summary/Abstract: This paper revisits the problem of bare singular count nouns in Romanian (see Tănase-Dogaru 2007, 2008). The vantage point bare singulars are analyzed from in this paper is the framework known in the literature as “incorporation”. The paper will try to refine the analysis of incorporation; in so doing, the analysis will clarify issues related to head-movement in current linguistic theory.
