语言产生的理论是单一语言的，但世界是多语言的。在词形编码领域，很明显，语言对不同的语音单位有不同的依赖，这对单一语言理论的普遍性提出了挑战。为了解决这一问题，我们提出了近似单位原则，该原则认为，亚词汇音系单位(音节、桑姆、音素段等)的初始选择对于理解语言特定的加工和识别什么是词汇产生中的一般语言都是至关重要的。我们定义了邻近单位以及它们在演讲计划和执行中所扮演的角色。近似单位原则与关于跨语言词形编码的大部分已知原则是一致的，但也做出了新的预测，可以为实验和语音错误数据的解释带来更大的清晰度。
Theories of language production are monolingual but the world is multilingual. In the domain of word-form encoding, it is clear that languages rely differentially on different phonological units, challenging the generality of the monolingual theories. To address this, we propose the proximate units principle, which holds that the initial selection of sub-lexical phonological units (syllables, morae, phonemic segments, etc) is crucial both to understanding language specific processing, and to identifying what is language general in word production. We define proximate units and the role they play in speech planning and execution. The proximate units principle is consistent with much of what is already known about word form encoding across languages but also makes new predictions and can bring greater clarity to interpretations of experimental and speech error data.
