摘要
移位是生成句法理论框架中的核心句法操作之一。随着理论的发展,学界对移位提出了多种归因,始终未达成共识。例如,在最简方案框架下,Chomsky(1995,2000,2001,2004,2008)就曾提出强势D特征、EPP特征、OCC特征、EF特征等各类形式特征作为移位的驱动力,而Chomsky(2013,2015)又将移位归结为短语加标算法中的计算规则之一。针对句法移位动因不清的问题,本文综合考察各类短语句法移位,在此基础上提出,句法移位可根据动因分成两类:一类为实现语段的特征聚合,另一类为了加标。从根本上来说,两种移位都是满足概念—意念界面解读的重要手段,是人类语言计算系统达成最优设计的必要机制。
Syntactic movement,being one of the central operations in the generative framework,has been assigned different motivations at different stages of the theoretical development,and the controversy has not stopped.For instance,Chomsky(1995,2000,2001,2004,2008)has attributed syntactic movement to the Strong D-feature,the P(eriphery)feature,the generalized EPP feature,the OCC feature,and the Edge feature,respectively,while Chomsky(2013,2015,2020)uniformly considers movement as one of the rules integrated in the Labelling Algorithm.Based on a careful examination of different phrasal movements on syntax,this paper proposes to classify movements into two types with respect to their essential motivations.One is for feature convergence;the other is for labelling.Crucially,they are both necessary for the interpretation at the Conceptual-Intentional system,thus indispensable for the optimal design of human language.
