Lan honen helburua euskal aginte perpausen azterketa formalerako lehen urratsak ematea da. Aginte perpausen berezitasunek, besteak beste, subjektuarekin dute zerikusia: batetik, isileko subjektua 2. pertsona gisa interpretatzen da beti, baita pertsona komunztadurarik ez dagoenean ere, eta bestetik, subjektua isil daiteke subjektu isiltzerik gabeko hizkuntzetan. Lan honetan erakutsiko denez, ezaugarri hauek azal daitezke aginte perpausetan 2. pertsonako ezaugarriak dituen islapen funtzional bat dagoela proposatuz (Zanuttini, 2008). Orobat, proposamena euskarara ekarrita ikusiko denez, 2. pertsonakoak ez diren subjektuak dituzten aginte perpausak ere azal daitezke ildo beretik. Azkenik, agintera eta ezeztapena aldi berean gertatzen direnean sortzen diren zenbait gertakari azalduko ditut. The main objective of this article is to take the first steps towards a formal approach of Basque imperative clauses. One of the most distinctive characteristics of these clauses has to do with the subject: firstly, the null subject of imperatives is always interpreted as the addressee, even when there is not any person mark in the verb, and secondly, languages that do not allow declarative or interrogative null subjects allow null imperative subjects. These properties can be explained proposing a functional projection with 2nd person features as in Zanuttini (2008). This proposal can also explain imperatives with other kind of subjects, as I will show in exploring Basque imperatives. Last but not least, some phenomena emerging from negative imperatives will be also explored.
