标记理论在母语迁移研究中的发展

On the Development of the Markedness Theory in L1 Transfer

标记理论是布拉格学派在20世纪30年代提出的,它是语言学中用以分析语言系统的一条重要原则。该理论认为,有些语言规则是无标记的或标记性较弱,而另外一些则是有标记的或标记性较强。标记程度不同的语言形式或规则在语言习得中的作用不一样,对母语迁移也产生不同的影响。本文旨在探讨标记理论在母语迁移中的发展及其启示。

The Markedness Theory is put forward by the Prague School in the 1930s, and is regarded as a significant basic principle in analyzing language system in linguistics. It states that some linguistic rules are unmarked or weakly marked, and others marked or more strongly marked. The linguistic forms or rules with different degrees of markedness differ in function in language acquisition and have different effects on language transfer. The paper focuses on the development and inspiration of the Markedness Theory applied in L1 transfer.
