"This paper examines the order of constituents in infinitival clauses which occur both as [[embedded clauses]] and [[independent clauses]]. Although Breton is a [[VSO]] language ([[Stephens (1982)|Stephens 1982]], [[Borsley & Stephens (1989)|Borsley & Stephens 1989]]), the paper will show that the order of [[constituents]] in infinitival clauses is [[VSO|SVO]]. | |||
I shall argue, as Sproat (1985) does for Welsh, that the [[Government and Binding theory]] (hence GB) of Chomsky (1981) provides a natural explanation for the difference in surface word order in finite and non-finite clauses. The paper is organised as follows. The aspects of GB relevant to the analysis are presented in section 1, followed by a presentation of the data in section 2.

i) complement clauses introduced by a prepositional [[complémenteur|complementizer]], | |||
ii) clauses complement to [[control verb]], and | |||
iii) complement clauses with [[ECM|exceptional case-marking]]. | |||
Section 4 deals with the analysis of non-finite independent clauses, those introduced by ''[[da]]'' and those introduced by ''[[C.ha(g)|ha]]''. Section 5 is a summary of the discussion and concludes that, in Breton, finite and non-finite clauses have a different word order: [[VSO]] and [[SVO]] respectively." | |||

Introduction: "This paper examines the order of constituents in infinitival clauses which occur both as embedded clauses and independent clauses. Although Breton is a VSO language (Stephens 1982, Borsley & Stephens 1989), the paper will show that the order of constituents in infinitival clauses is SVO. I shall argue, as Sproat (1985) does for Welsh, that the Government and Binding theory (hence GB) of Chomsky (1981) provides a natural explanation for the difference in surface word order in finite and non-finite clauses. The paper is organised as follows. The aspects of GB relevant to the analysis are presented in section 1, followed by a presentation of the data in section 2. In section 3, I shall examine the order of constituents in three types of embedded clauses: i) complement clauses introduced by a prepositional complementizer, ii) clauses complement to control verb, and iii) complement clauses with exceptional case-marking. Section 4 deals with the analysis of non-finite independent clauses, those introduced by da and those introduced by ha. Section 5 is a summary of the discussion and concludes that, in Breton, finite and non-finite clauses have a different word order: VSO and SVO respectively."
