摘要
优选论(Optimality Theory,简称OT)是由生成语法发展而来的一种表层主导性语法框架理论,其全部的解释力量来源于限制层级排列模式的操作。本文拟从OT的诞生及其基本思想,OT的普遍限制层级排列模式,OT的解释力,OT的广泛应用等几个方面对OT作一个较为全面的介绍与评述。
This paper presents an introduction to Optimality Theory (OT). OT is a rather innovative development of Generative Grammar. Its major concern is the ranking of constraints and the resolutions of conflicts between competing constraints. This paper discusses the origin and basic concepts of OT, the ranking of constraints, the strength of OT, and the wide application of OT.
