This chapter focuses on the relation between arguments and grammatical functions. It consists of 3 basic secions, followed by a summary, suggestions for further reading, the bibliography and some indicative exercises. Section one introduces the other basic syntactic operation (beyond Merge), namely Agree, which also contributes to the movement as an instance of internal merge. Section two focuses on the realization of the subject and in particular on the pro-drop parameter; it discusses the conditions under which a null subject is available and the interpretations it may receive crosslinguistically. Section 3 considers the case of null objects, the syntactic contexts where it is available, as well the interpretations it receives. Τhis chapter completes the presentation of the basic syntactic operations (merge, internal/external, and Agree) and introduces the reader to the study of crosslinguistic variation on the basis of a well-studied parameter, that of the null subject (with extensions to null objects).
