Unlike the previous view of do so as a monolithic VP anaphor, I argue that do so is better analyzed as do and so, separately substituting for a functional Voice head and VP, respectively. This argument is supported by the observation of VP adverbs, the locative/directional interpretation of PPs, and the analysis of voice mismatch. The study consequently presents a more refined model of VP than the previous X-bar theoretic model, as it fulfills the structural requirement between complements and adjuncts.enAttribution 4.0 Internationalhttp://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/4.0/do soMergelocative/directional PPsvoice mismatchinfo:eu-repo/semantics/article10.31743/lingbaw.14964
