Some idioms require the verb to have a lexical complement at LF [...] others permit the idiomatic interpretation to be assigned indirectly through trace [...] Thus idioms in general have the formal properties of non-idiomatic structures, and appear either in D-structure or S-structure form, but not only in S-structure or LF form.
