摘要本研究的目的是为了更广泛地应用数词名词构式的统一表示,这种表示既能捕捉波兰语和其他语言中与修饰名词格一致的较高数词(≥5,NumH)的格匹配模式,也能捕捉波兰语和其他语言中与名词格不同的数词(格独立模式)。我们的解释借鉴了Bailyn(2004)对基数词的分析,其中同意和不同意的数字都被放置在功能中心语FQ的投射(QP)中,但与Bailyn(2004)相反,它主张波兰语中NNCC和复杂NNC的主要基数作为指定符表示,波兰语的数字/量化系统相当具有挑战性。我们认为在Bošković(2006)、Ionin and Matushansky(2006)、Kayne(2010)、Danon(2012)、Norris(2014)和Willim(2015)中讨论的许多案例可能具有统一的代表性。简而言之,大小写匹配和大小写独立模式都被表示为等价于基数作为说明符的表示。这有助于保持衍生和结构建筑的透明度,并避免前瞻和禁止篡改的问题(Chomsky 2000,2001; Stepanov 2001,2007)。在Burzio(1986)的推广中,我们提出FQ的格赋值能力直接由NumP的一个独立格(特征)占据FQ的指定符位置来决定。我们的建议得到了Di Sciullo(2015,2017)和Kayne(2016)最近关于复数结构的工作的进一步支持,其中它们的组成部分被组合在涉及无声功能投射的非对称结构中。
Abstract The goal of this study is to argue for a more widespread application of a uniform representation of Numeral Noun Constructions (NNCs) which captures both patterns with higher numerals (≥5, NumH) agreeing in case with the modified noun (case matching pattern) or bearing a distinct case from a noun (case independence pattern) in Polish and in other languages. Our account draws on the analysis of cardinal numerals in Bailyn (2004) in which both agreeing and non-agreeing numerals are placed within the projection (QP) of the functional head FQ, but contrary to Bailyn (2004), it advocates a predominant cardinal-as-specifier representation of NNCc and complex NNCs in Polish, a language whose numeral/quantificational system is fairly challenging. We propose that many cases discussed in Bošković (2006), Ionin and Matushansky (2006), Kayne (2010), Danon (2012), Norris (2014) and Willim (2015) may have a uniform representation. In short, both the case matching and the case independence patterns are represented as equivalent to the cardinal-as-specifier representation. This serves to preserve derivational and structure building transparency and avoids the issue of look-ahead and the No Tampering ban (Chomsky 2000, 2001; Stepanov 2001, 2007). In the spirit of Burzio’s (1986) Generalization we submit that the case valuation capacity of FQ is conditioned directly by an independent case (feature) of NumP occupying FQ’s specifier position. Our proposal receives further support from recent work on the structure of complex numerals in Di Sciullo (2015, 2017) and Kayne (2016), where their component parts are combined in asymmetric structures involving silent functional projections.
