In thislanguage, pied-piping is accompanied by the obligatoryreordering of elements withinthe pied-piped XP. This reordering is most evident inconstituent questions whereWH-pied-pipers always occur first in the string and otherelements follow in their normal,canonical order. Within CCG, these facts are accounted forby analyzing pied-pipersas rightward-looking functors from unsaturated NP or PP tofunctors over verbsor other predicates. By virtue of the lexically specifieddirectionality of these functorsand by virtue of a requirement in CCG that all combinatoryrules respect thisdirectionality when sanctioning combinations of functorswith their arguments, thefacts regarding the order of expressions in pied-pipedphrases in Tzotzil fall out. Noappeal to 'sabstract agreement' or any other sort ofphrase-structural relation isnecessary. The paper demonstrates that the order ofelements observed in pied-pipedconstituents in Tzotzil is an automatic consequenceof the syntactic projection oflexical function/argument relations by meansof the CCG rules of FunctionalApplication and Functional Composition.
