Abstract
An LFG treatment is proposed for 'Displaced Dependents' in English, including dependents of Degree Words, such as 'so', 'too', etc. and certain adjectives (e.g. 'difficult'), as in examples like 'too complex for anyone to understand', 'a difficult problem for anyone to understand' where 'for anyone to understand' is dependent on 'too' and 'di fficult' respectively, but is not adjacent to them.
