The aim of this paper is to explicate the categorial status of whether. In current generative syntax, whether is classified either as a complementizer or as an interrogative adverb. I have shown that both analyses are untenable, considering that they can account for neither the differences between whether and if nor the differences between whether and the other wh-expressions. As an alternative, I proposed a new analysis in which whether is characterized as a QP and taken to be base-generated in Spec-CP. These two assumptions concerning the categorial status of whether have been shown to be sufficient to account for its syntactic behavior.
