Inkh: An uncompetitive pronoun in Eastern Armenian
Mariam Asatryan
September 2024
 

In this paper, I present a puzzle for binding theories put forward by Eastern Armenian pronoun ink. I discuss different theories of pronominal binding, including classical binding theory, reflexivity theory, and competition-based theory, showing that none of these theories can account for the referential properties of the pronoun ink.
