I just conjecture its meaning but don't get exact one. What does a cascade mean in syntax. ## Answers ### Answer by Alex B. (score: 3) Actually, it is a derivational cascade. I think it's Juan Uriagereka's terminology. Uriagereka 2005 writes that command units (or CU's, objects formed by the continuous application of Merge to the same object) are spelled-out at the end of each derivational cascade. The more common term in the Minimalist Program is a phase.
