不充分赋值理论概述

An Introduction to Underspecification

本文对不充分赋值理论进行了概述,比较了不充分赋值理论内部的两种理论:激进的不充分赋值和标对比值,并讨论了激进的不充分赋值在普通话中的应用。

This article gives us a short introduction to the Underspecification theory. I mainly discuss its two subtheories: the contrastive and radical Underspecification theory and further cover the application of these two theories to Chinese vowels in Mandarin Phonology.
