摘要

本文从依赖语法的角度来思考NP与DP之争。传递的信息是，在给定关于句子结构的DG假设的情况下，对名词组的传统NP分析比DP分析更可取。这场争论也是从短语结构语法的角度来考虑的。虽然在给定PSG假设的情况下，这里讨论的许多问题并不直接支持NP而非DP，但有些问题确实支持。更重要的是，必须接受零判定器头部的广泛存在，才能使DP分析在PSG假设上可信。这里详细阐述的论点是，对名词群的传统NP分析比DP分析更准确、更简单，部分原因是它不依赖于零限定词的频繁出现。

NPs, not DPs: The NP vs. DP debate in the context of dependency grammar

This paper considers the NP vs. DP debate from the perspective of dependency grammar (DG). The message is delivered that given DG assumptions about sentence structure, the traditional NP-analysis of nominal groups is preferable over the DP-analysis. The debate is also considered from the perspective of phrase structure grammar (PSG). While many of the issues discussed here do not directly support NP over DP given PSG assumptions, some do. More importantly, one has to accept the widespread presence of null determiner heads for the DP analysis to be plausible on PSG assumptions. The argument developed at length here is that the traditional NP-analysis of nominal groups is both more accurate and simpler than the DP-analysis, in part because it does not rely on the frequent occurrence of null determiners.
