Abstract

This article provides an overview of current and historically important issues in the study of the syntax–prosody interface, the point of interaction between syntactic structure and phrase-level phonology. We take a broad view of the syntax–prosody interface, surveying both direct and indirect reference theories, with a focus on evaluating the continuing prominent role of prosodic hierarchy theory in shaping our understanding of this area of linguistics. Specific topics discussed in detail include the identification of prosodic domains, the universality of prosodic categories, the recent resurgence of interest in the role of recursion in prosodic structure, crosslinguistic variation in syntax–prosody mapping, prosodic influences on syntax and word order, and the influence of sentence processing in the planning and shaping of prosodic domains. We consider criticisms of prosodic hierarchy theory in particular, and provide an assessment of the future of prosodic hierarchy theory in research on the syntax–prosody interface.
语法-韵律接口
本文概述了语法-韵律界面(句法结构和短语级音韵学之间的相互作用点)研究中当前和历史上的重要问题。我们对语法-韵律界面进行了广泛的观察,调查了直接和间接指称理论,重点是评估韵律层次理论在塑造我们对这一语言学领域的理解方面的持续突出作用。详细讨论的具体主题包括韵律域的识别,韵律类别的普遍性,最近对递归在韵律结构中的作用的兴趣的复苏,语法-韵律映射的跨语言变化,韵律对句法和词序的影响,以及句子加工对韵律域规划和塑造的影响。我们特别考虑了对韵律层次理论的批评,并对韵律层次理论在语法-韵律界面研究中的未来进行了评估。
