Abstract
In this article I analyze binding and extraction asymmetries between direct and indirect objects in German double object constructions. I argue that i) indirect objects (goal/recipient arguments) are base-generated as A(rgument)-Adjuncts (Grimshaw 1988) and that ii) dative and accusative arguments undergo object shift in the overt syntax in German. This analysis provides a unified account of the fact that indirect objects, in contrast to direct objects, show other binding properties. lt also explains that indirect DP-, PP- or sentential objects are barriers for extraction in contrast to direct objects, which are not.
