dc.description.abstractChildren’s difficulties with object relatives, linked to intervention effects (Friedmann et al. 2009), can be modulated by finer-grained featural mismatches between the moved object and the embedded subject. We investigated the effect of gender and number featural mismatches and the role of audible verb agreement in number on the comprehension of relative clauses in French. Our findings show that a mismatch in number, but not in gender, modulates intervention effects in French object relatives. This follows from the featural intervention account (Belletti et al. 2012), because only number acts as attractor for movement in French. We also show that audibility of number agreement on the verbal morphology does not affect comprehension, as expected under an abstract feature-based approach to intervention.
