The book investigates firstly the clausal environments which license gaps and resumptive (or intrusive) pronouns in Behdini. A comparison is made between Behdini and English, and then in this context, L1 Behdini speakers' L2 acquisition of English wh-dependencies is investigated. Several important theoretical hypotheses about L2 acquisition and processing are evaluated.
