According to Webelhuth (1992) and Cable (2010), pied-piping from adjunct islands is prohibited. The results of the experiments, however, suggest that not only is it possible in Hungarian for the pied-piper to be embedded inside an adjunct island but the embedding of the pied-piper and the movement itself are unrestricted in focus-construction. Pied-piping shows a similar picture in <em>wh-</em>constructions with the restriction that the <em>wh-</em>element has to be discourse-linked for pied-piping to be allowed.</p> ER -
