Accounts of SLI in Afrikaans Another question construction produced by a child with SLI is presented in (208). Here, the verb werk does occur to the left of the subject ons, that is, an inverted order can be observed. However, in the surface form, the adverb weer occurs between the wh-element and the verb, which causes this main clause not to demonstrate the required verb-second word order. From (209), it appears that the finite verb moved to C (via T) (rightly so), and that the adverb weer was base-generated in the specifier postion of TP (acting as a type of sentential adverb), which means that the subject could not move into that position. What is at issue here, it that the intermediate copy of the finite verb (the one in T), instead of the left-most one, received sound form. (208) Target: hoekom weer werk ons net so bietjie? hoekom werk ons weer net so bietjie? why again work we just such bit why work we again just such bit ‘Why do we again just work a little bit?’ (209) CP Spec hoekom C werk C' TP Spec T' weer T v P werk Spec v ' ons VP DP V net so werk bietjie v werk 291
