This paper examines the Subject Raising and Exceptional Case Marking Constructions in English, Turkish and Korean. The Subject Raising in English is possible if the complement clause is non-finite, whereas it is impossible if the complement clause is finite. In Turkish, Dialect A shows the properties similar to those of English. On the other hand, in the case of Dialect B the Subject Raising is possible in both finite and non-finite clauses. When NP (Noun Phrase) is raised or moves, it leaves trace which is called NP-trace. While in the raising in non-finite clause, the trace can be treated as NP-trace normally, in the raising in finite clause, the trace can not be treated as NP- trace because the trace is placed in the position in which the case is licensed. In oder to solve the problem mentioned the above, Moore (1998) adopts the Copy-Raising Analysis under which A-chain can include (silent) pronominal as its tail. Since there is no non-finite clause in the Subject Raising Constructions in Korean, unlike in English and Turkish, it follows that A-Move occurs only in the finite clause. While in the case of the finite clause, most of the native speaker do not allow the Subject Raising, some of the speakers do allow it. The latter case is much the same as the one of Dialect B in Turkish. The fact that the subject is raised or moves in the finite clause means that the case-licensed element is raised or moves. Accordingly the empty category can not be NP-trace in this subject position but be (silent) pronominal as in Turkish. Besides, it is observed that the phenomenon similar to the one in the Raising Construction is discovered in the Exceptional Cases Marking Construction. The difference is that in the former the subject in the complement clause is raised to the subject position in the matrix sentence, whereas in the latter the subject in the complement clause is raised to the object position in matrix sentence. Under such an analysis, Raising or Move violates Chain Condition which requires the tail of A-chain is the single theta-position while the head is the single Case-marked position. In order to overcome this difficulty we adopt Revised Chain Condition which permits the tale of A-chain to have Case and theta-role at the same time. The remaining potential problem is about Resumptive Pronoun Strategy used in A'-Move. We demonstrate that the strategy can be and is being used in A-Move cross-linguistically.
