摘要

对英语一两次的研究表明,它们实际上都是一个包含两个可见语素和一个无声语素的复杂短语。两者都不是一个简单的词汇项。-ce语素类似于后置词,尽管英语主要是介词。与once和twice相关联的silent元素是time的无声对应,表示为time。TIME的这个实例是单数的,即使在twice的情况下也是如此。TIME和分类器的语法之间似乎存在某种联系。带有once和twice的无声TIME的存在间接地证明了人类语言能力中存在其他无先行词的无声名义要素,如NUMBER。这类无声元素在学习者可用的原始数据中是不可见的(即使通过先行词)。因此,它们的特性,例如,它们的单一性或多元性以及它们的许可条件,为我们提供了一个特权窗口,使我们得以了解语言能力本身不变的核心。诸如TIME和NUMBER等无声元素的存在,在一定程度上可以追溯到分解性原则,即人类语言能力对每个词汇项施加了最多一种可解释的句法特征。

Once and Twice
Abstract The study of English once and twice yields evidence that each of them is actually a complex phrase containing two visible morphemes and one silent one. Neither is a simple lexical item. The -ce morpheme is akin to a postposition, despite English being primarily prepositional. The silent element associated with once and twice is a silent counterpart of time, represented as TIME. This instance of TIME is singular, even in the case of twice. There appears to be a link between TIME and the syntax of classifiers. The presence of silent TIME with once and twice indirectly provides evidence for the presence in the human language faculty of other antecedentless silent nominal elements such as NUMBER. Silent elements of this sort are not visible (even via an antecedent) in the primary data available to the learner. Their properties, for example, their singularity or plurality and their licensing conditions, therefore provide us with a privileged window onto the invariant core of the language faculty itself. The presence of silent elements such as TIME and NUMBER can, in part, be traced back to a principle of decompositionality, to the effect that the human language faculty imposes a maximum of one interpretable syntactic feature per lexical item.

期刊介绍: STUDIES IN CHINESE LINGUISTICS is an international academic journal devoted to comparative study of Chinese language and linguistics and a platform for research of comparative linguistics and dialectal grammar under a comparative approach. We especially welcome synchronic or diachronic comparative works on any aspects of the syntax, semantics, and morphology among Chinese dialects or between a Chinese language/dialect and any languages that contribute to theoretical linguistics or have significant theoretical implications. The journal does not have article processing charges (APCs) nor article submission charges.
