最简方案下的标签理论

Labeling in the Minimalist Program

标签理论是最简方案的重要议题之一。本文旨在对标签理论的理论背景以及加标算法的应用做一个简单的介绍。句法标签不仅满足语言官能与语义接口上的要求,同时在句法内部操作上也起到重要作用。本文以陈述句加标的核心操作为例来说明不同语言对同一句法结构加标方法的异同。文中也会探讨汉语结合标签理论方面的研究性问题和可行的策略。

Labeling is one of the important topics in the Minimalist Program.This article provides the reader with a brief overview of the theoretical background and the basic application of the Labeling Algorithm. Labels not only satisfy the requirement of the interface between the Language Faculty and the semantic component, they also play an essential role in the syntactic derivation. With a demonstration of a step-by-step derivation of simple sentences, this paper shows that different languages can adopt different labeling strategies to derive the same syntactic structure. The author also discusses research questions related to Labeling applied to Chinese and their possible solutions.
