This paper argues that at least in some cases the traditional view on pro as having interpretable φ-features can be maintained, even for null subject languages that have φ-features on Infl, such as Spanish, Greek and Romanian. The evidence is drawn from surrogate imperative clauses in the subjunctive mood in these languages.
Key words:
subjunctive, imperative, speech event, feature transmission, interpretability and valuation
