Summary/Abstract: The aim of this paper is to apply Chomsky’s theory of agreement and case assignment to Bosnian language. This theory argues that agreement involves a relationship between a probe and a goal. Some features enter the derivation already valued (the tense feature on T and the φ-features on nominal expressions), whereas others (the φ-features on T and the case feature on nominals) are initially unvalued and are assigned value in the case of derivation via a Feature Valuation operation.
