I argue that the two contexts where they are inflected need two different accounts, and that neither of them reflects genuine nominal concord. In the NPE case, the morphology showing up on the adjective is the result of a stranded affix configuration caused by eliding the nP. I show that predicative adjectives, although they&#8217;re inflected, cannot be reduced to a case of NPE, but must get case\/number features from a different source.
