## Summary

This poster was presented on 2021 April 8 - 11 at the [39th meeting of the
West Coast Conference on Formal
Linguistics](https://sites.google.com/view/wccfl2021/).

  

Provided abstract:

This poster analyzes case and agreement in Uab Meto, an Austronesian language
of Timor, Indonesia. Uab Meto has verb agreement and case marking in a
nominative-accusative alignment. Languages with these properties typically
have a phi-probe on T for agreement. However, Uab Meto agreement is lower,
below TAM elements and negation, but still higher than V, v, and Voice. This
poster proposes that there is an Agr head immediately above VoiceP that agrees
with the closest DP in its c-command domain.
