名词词组内部成分“一致”的语段中心语驱动研究

A phase-head driven analysis on the agreement of the internal components in DP

名词词组内部成分之间的一致对应及形态共变是语言中的常见现象。以往研究只关注句子成分间的“一致”,少有对名词词组结构内部成分间的一致问题展开探讨。名词词组内部发生一致关系的成分主要为限定词、修饰语和名词中心语等核心成分,主要涉及限定性、人称、数、性及可数性等语法范畴。本文在语段理论框架下,基于名词词组结构DP的语段属性,提出DP内语段中心语所具有的不可解读特征uF是其内部成分建立“一致”关系的动因机制。

The agreement correspondence and morphological co-variation of the internal components in DP are common linguistic phenomena.Previous studies mainly focused on the agreement between phrasal elements,but ignored the agreement in DP.It is found that the main components of agreement correspondence and morphological co-variance in DP are determiners,modifiers and noun heads,which involve notions such as definiteness,person,number,gender and countability.Based on the phasal properties of DP in the framework of Phase Theory,this paper proposes that the uF on the internal phase heads of DP is the motivation for the agreement between the internal components in DP.
