逻辑式层面DP内焦点算子移位及其移位的方向性

Movement of Focus Particles and Its Directionality in Logic Form

Bayer将英语的only/even/also和德语的sogar/nur等具有量化意义的词称为焦点算子。根据移位理论,焦点算子在逻辑式中必须提升至其量化域以解释其量化意义。通过观察,我们发现DP内焦点算子的移位目标是[Spc,DP]位置,并且焦点算子的移位具有移位方向一致性特征。

This paper aims in LF at explaining the distribution and landing site of focus particles which Bayer referred to ＂only, even and also＂ in English and ＂sogar and nur＂ in German respectively. It also argues that directionality of raising focus particles should obey the rule of ＂Condition of Global Harmony＂ by observing English and German particles. LF - movement may be involved in DP＇s internal constituents only when [ Spec, DP] possibly may be used as a target for the movement of focus particles.
