This chapter proposes an analysis of the syntax and semantics of non-V2 nola-headed embedded clauses in Basque. Such structures have a particular behavior in three main respects: (i) Contrary to its appearance, nola does not behave like a manner wh-item; it is rather a complementizer; (ii) contrary to other types of embedded clauses, nola-headed clauses have to appear in a postverbal position; and (iii) they bring about a factive reading. A derivational analysis is proposed tying these properties together: analyzing nola as a complementizer (a Force head), the structure will be nonconvergent if it stays in situ; as it would constitute a configuration violating the Final over Final Condition (FOFC), given that a head-last structure would immediately dominate a head-first structure. The alternative configuration with extraposition of the embedded clause, however, evades any violation of FOFC.< Réduire
