本文在诸如基于指称和基于构式的分裂等相关现象的背景下，对可选和交替格标记的类型学和历时性进行了综述。尽管在这一领域近期有很多研究工作，这些工作受到基于文本的语言描述方法以及类型学的定量和区域方法的推动，但该领域在概念和术语上仍然有些分散。我们梳理了相关现象，并对A和O论元的可选和交替标记进行了类型学综述。我们还强调了一些仍然存在的问题，包括基于标记性逆转的经典格标记模型存在的问题。最后一部分探讨了可选格标记的历时起源。除了某些来源域以及与信息结构相关的因素（无论是以来源域的形式，还是作为在标记发展中起作用的构式语境）之外，这些起源在很大程度上与非可选系统的起源相似。
This paper presents a survey of the typology and diachrony of optional and alternating case marking, in the context of related phenomena such as referent- and construction-based splits. While there is much recent work in this area, driven by text-based approaches to language description, as well as quantitative and areal approaches to typology, the domain remains somewhat scattered, conceptually and terminologically. We chart the relevant phenomena, and we provide a typological survey of optional and alternating marking for A and O arguments. We also highlight some of the questions that remain, including problems with the classic model of case marking based on markedness reversal. A final section investigates the diachronic origins of optional case markers. These are largely similar to those for non-optional systems, apart from certain source domains, as well as factors related to information structure, both in the form of source domains and as constructional contexts playing a role in the development of the markers.
