Abstract

Abstract The term Sprachbund refers to the convergence of typologically different languages in the same region and represents an interesting challenge to the notion of parameter conceived as a fixed value of a core syntactic option, i.e. ±null subjects. This contrast could be resolved by the methodological differentiation between surface forms and structural differences. Analyzing the status of clitic subjects and the effects of the so called “that-trace filter” in both Northern Italian and Bavarian dialects we will observe that continua primarily refer to surface forms – i.e. linear word orders – whereas the core option of a given (macro)parameter captures basic typological differences. In this perspective, we revisit the traditional Wellentheorie as a prototypical approach to analyze contact phenomena.
布伦纳山口南北的语言同步:连续体的建模
术语Sprachbund指的是同一地区不同类型语言的融合,代表了对参数概念的有趣挑战,参数概念被认为是核心语法选项的固定值,即±null主语。这种对比可以通过表面形式和结构差异的方法论区分来解决。通过分析意大利北部方言和巴伐利亚方言中状语从句的状态和所谓的“that-trace过滤器”的影响,我们会发现连续词主要指表面形式,即线性词序,而给定(宏观)参数的核心选项则捕捉基本的类型学差异。从这个角度来看,我们重新审视了传统的韦伦理论作为分析接触现象的原型方法。
