最近的语言学研究假设句法的“表面”差异并不一定反映“深层”结构的差异，即形式上有差异，但意义上没有差异。但在许多（也许是所有）实践中采用该假设的情况下，可以发现意义上意想不到的差异。一个更安全的工作假设是，语言经济学要求所有形式上的差异都与意义上的差异相关。
Recent work in linguistics has assumed that “surface” differences in syntax do not necessarily reflect differences in “deep” structure, i.e., there are differences in form without differences in meaning. But in many, perhaps in all, instances where the assumption has been adopted in practice, an unsuspected difference in meaning can be found. It is a safer working hypothesis that linguistic economy requires all differences in form to be correlated with differences in meaning.
