本文讨论了语言学理论的两种不同研究方法及其与句法分析中的经验问题的关系。所选的两个应用程序可能是斯堪的纳维亚语言学中最广泛的两个应用程序，在这里可以分别代表功能和形式观点：功能主义的代表是保罗·狄德里克森的（1936，1941，1946，1964）Saetningsskema，“句子模型”，形式化方法以分析为代表，其主要特征与原则和参数框架（Chomsky 1986）和最简纲领（Chomsky 1995）相同。第二节指出理论语言学和经验语言学之间的区别不是对立而是相互依存的关系，第三节讨论了两种语言学的不同之处。第五节和第六节直接将这两种方法并置起来，分别从一种方法中的典型特征（功能方法中的场和槽，形式方法中的移位操作）和另一种方法中的对应特征进行考察。本文的结论是，这些方法比我们想象的有更多的共同点，因此，语言学家应该注意不同方法中获得的见解。
The paper discusss two different approaches to ling uistic theory and their relation to empirical issues in syntactic analysis. The two app roaches chosen are probably the two most widespread ones in Scandinavian linguistics, here s een as representing a functional and a formal view respectively: The functional approach i s represented by Paul Diderichsen’s (1936, 1941, 1946, 1964) saetningsskema , ‘sentence model’, and the formal approach is represented by analysis whose main features are com mon to the principles and parameters framework (Chomsky 1986) and the minimalist programme (Chomsky 1995). Section 2 argues that the difference between theor etical and empirical lingustics is not an opposition but an interdependence, and section 3 discusses various differences within the two approaches. After these preliminary discussions, section 4 giv es a detailed introduction to clausal architecture in the two approaches, and sections 5 and 6 directly juxtapose the two appproaches, by taking something often considered t ypical for one approach (the fields and slots in the functional approach, and the movement operations in the formal approach), and examining what they correspond to in the other appr oach. The paper concludes that the approaches have more things in common than on might think, and linguists would therefore be well-advise d to pay attention to insights gained in approaches different from their own.
