项目摘要

This research has elucidated some tendencies concerning the morpheme arrangement rules each morphological type o fl language shows and the preference of each type for the rules providing the minimal number of possible events each stage of the morpheme strings the process of understanding by the hearer has provisionally reached, that is the rules to provide the maximal efficiency in understanding the meaning of the sentences the hearers are toying to understand. Thus the problem the sernantico-syntactic studies should solve in the coming stage of their theoretical research is to examine how plausible or relevant is the principle of maximal efficiency the result of this academic project proclaims. And a further theoretical verification is needed of the plausibility of this hypothetical principle from the viewpoint of the universal property ofhuman language functioning as the conveyer of events from speakers to hearers.The principle of efficiency in the understanding process of sentences has in fact something to do with the principle of "economy" that A. Matinet, the famous propagator of linguistic structuralism, put forwaid nearly half acentauy ago. However, while Martinet's principle of economy concerns itself mainly with the phonological and the morphological aspect of language, our princiole of efficiency focuses upon the syntactic aspect of language making use of the typological data of various languages in the world and paying appropriate attention on the communicative process of human language. On top of this, our research has succeeded in determining the efficiency of understanding on a proper mathematical basis, thus introducing a method of quantitative semantic analysis into linguistics. As a logical result of this attitude of study, our research enables linguists to expect to pursue their investigation of the universal aspect of language on a firmly theoretical and rational background.

本研究阐明了语言的每种形态类型所表现出的语素排列规则的一些倾向性，以及每种形态类型对听话人理解过程中语素串每一阶段所暂时达到的最少可能事件数的规则的偏好性。这是规则，以提供最大的效率，在理解的意义，句子的听众是玩弄理解。因此，在下一阶段的理论研究中，主谓句句法研究应该解决的问题是，检验这一学术项目的结果所宣称的效率最大化原则的合理性或相关性。这一假设原则的合理性还需要从人类语言作为事件从说话者到听话者的传递者这一普遍属性的角度进行进一步的理论验证。句子理解过程中的效率原则实际上与A.著名的语言结构主义的传播者马蒂尼早在半个世纪以前就提出了这一理论。然而，马丁内的经济原则主要关注语言的语音和形态方面，而我们的效率原则则关注语言的句法方面，利用世界上各种语言的类型学数据，并适当关注人类语言的交际过程。除此之外，我们的研究还成功地在适当的数学基础上确定了理解的效率，从而将定量语义分析的方法引入了语言学。作为这种研究态度的逻辑结果，我们的研究使语言学家能够期望在坚实的理论和理性背景下对语言的普遍方面进行调查。
