Argument 2: two types of Ds (2) a. Hem insistit en cada situació (compromesa) (que es va presentar). b.*Hem insistit en cada (compromesa) (que es va presentar). (3) a. Hem insistit en aquella situació (compromesa) (que es va presentar). b. Hem insistit en aquella (compromesa) (que es va presentar).
Argument 2: two types of Ds Weak determiners: cada, sengles, qualque, cert, mon, ton, son, llur, tot*, etc. Strong determiners: aquest, aquell, quin, quant, cap, un, algun, tant, molt, etc. If we allow empty nouns, we either cannot account for the difference in behavior or we have to restrict the null N in the appropriate position in relation to a strong determiner. The assumption that a strong D can license an empty N is ad hoc. * Tot, as in tota reclamació, tot document, not as in tots els llibres, tota l’estona, etc., where it is a predeterminer.
