本文介绍了口语英语中的一种现象，我们称之为对比重复（CR），它涉及单词和短语的复制，如It's tuna salad，而不是salad -salad，或Do you LIKE-HIM-like him？通过从自然语音、书面文本和电视剧本中收集的例子语料库，我们发现CR将对复制元素的解释限制在“真实”或原型阅读。至于结构的结构特性，我们发现在重复现象中，CR是不寻常的，因为整个成语可以被复制，宾语代词经常被复制（如上面的第二个例子），而屈折形态不需要被复制。因此，CR的“范围”不能用纯粹的音系术语来定义；相反，它是语音、形态句法、句法和词汇因素共同作用的结果。我们在Jackendoff（1997,2002）的并行架构框架内进行了分析，其中CR被视为具有句法和语义内容以及重复音系的词汇项目。然后，我们根据“极简主义计划”中的当前假设，勾勒出另一种分析，其中包括将结果链的头和尾都明确地移动到一个类似焦点的位置。
This paper presents a phenomenon of colloquial English that we call Contrastive Reduplication (CR), involving the copying of words and sometimes phrases as in It's tuna salad, not SALAD-salad, or Do you LIKE-HIM-like him? Drawing on a corpus of examples gathered from natural speech, written texts, and television scripts, we show that CR restricts the interpretation of the copied element to a `real' or prototypical reading. Turning to the structural properties of the construction, we show that CR is unusual among reduplication phenomena in that whole idioms can be copied, object pronouns are often copied (as in the second example above), and inflectional morphology need not be copied. Thus the `scope' of CR cannot be defined in purely phonological terms; rather, a combination of phonological, morphosyntactic, syntactic, and lexical factors is involved. We develop an analysis within the parallel architecture framework of Jackendoff (1997, 2002), whereby CR is treated as a lexical item with syntactic and semantic content and reduplicative phonology. We then sketch an alternative analysis, based on current assumptions within the Minimalist Program, which involves movement into a focus-like position with both the head and the tail of the resulting chain spelled out.
