English employs two different types of free relatives: standard and transparent. Of these two types, transparent free relatives (TFRs) displaying intriguing syntactic and semantic properties. In particular, transparent free relatives (TFRs) are peculiar in the sense that the predicative expression within the relative clause functions as the head of the clause with respect to syntactic as well as semantic properties. In this paper, we provide a non-movement analysis of TFRs that places an emphasis on the interactions between the lexicon and constructional constraints.
