日语允许数词+量词的组合出现在与中心名词相关的各种位置。本文认为,有必要对NP之上的至少四种功能投射(#P、CaseP、QP和DP)以及这些功能投射的大量短语移动进行研究,以便对日语数量组合的结构多样性提供一个原则性的解释。新的证据极小表达式和pseudopartitives,这还没有被系统地研究之前,被带到承担分析的细节。日语是探索名词相关功能投射本质的绝佳实验场,因为其中一些功能投射,如#°和格°,被认为是公开实现的(#°作为量词,格°作为格助词
Japanese allows the numeral + classifier combination to appear in a variety of positions in relation to the head noun. This paper argues that it is necessary to posit at least four functional projections above NP (#P, CaseP, QP, and DP) and massive phrasal movement of such functional projections in order to provide a principled account for the structural diversity of the numeral + classifier combination in Japanese. New evidence from minimizer expressions and pseudopartitives, which have not been systematically investigated before, is brought to bear on details of the analysis. Japanese is an excellent testing ground for exploring the nature of the noun-related functional projections, because some of them, such as #° and Case°, are argued to be overtly realized (#° as a classifier and Case° as a case particle
