When the idiomatic theme forms an idiom chunk with the verb root in the multiple Case marking(MCM) construction, even if the Case marker isn’t attached to the theme, it may appear in the verbal complement position, preserving an idiomatic meaning. The idiomatic(i.e., special) meaning formed at the level of V’ may induce the awkward sentence to make complete sense. Thus, the idiomatic nominative theme in the embedded clause cannot occupy the embedded null subject position coindexed with the matrix ECMed element. The idiomatic nominative theme is in the verbal complement position of the embedded clause of the ECM construction, which is the reason why the idiomatic meaning stays the same, even though the sentence is negated. The head Neg cannot block the head movement at the level of V’ since Neg is between T and v(or V).(Lee, 2016b)
