根据Merchant(2016)的研究,有三个问题占据了分析这些省略结构的大量理论文献。第一个问题是结构问题,即在省略位置内部是否存在不发音的句法结构。第二个问题被称为同一性问题,它解决了省略中被理解的材料与其先行词之间的关系。第三个问题被称为许可问题,它询问允许省略的中心语、位置或结构的性质,以及这些结构与省略部分之间关系的局部性条件。关于省略的理论研究主要集中在前两个问题上,而第三个问题,即省略的句法许可问题,并没有像关于省略部位的句法及其识别问题那样受到广泛关注。基于这一背景,本研究试图从一个新的来源:儿童语言习得,对省略的许可问题做出贡献。更具体地说,我们提供了来自英语习得的证据,证明协议错误得到了有力的证明
According to Merchant (2016), three questions have occupied much of the theoretical literature analyzing these ellipsis structures. The first is called the structure question, which asks whether there is unpronounced syntactic structure internal to the ellipsis site. The second question is called the identity question, which addresses the relationship between the understood material in ellipsis and its antecedent. The third question is known as the licensing question, which inquires about the nature of the heads, positions, or structures that allow for ellipsis, as well as the locality conditions on the relation between these structures and the elided parts. Theoretical studies on ellipsis have centered on the first two questions, and the third question, which concerns the syntactic licensing on ellipsis, has not attracted as much attention as the questions about the syntax within the ellipsis site and its identification. In light of this background, the present study attempts to contribute to the question concerning the licensing of ellipsis by bringing evidence from a novel source: child language acquisition. More specifically, we present evidence from the acquisition of English that agreement errors which are robustly attested with
