项目摘要
This project examines the role of second language acquisition (SLA) in the development of creole languages. Despite arising in diverse language environments worldwide, creoles often have similar grammars. Plag (2008) explains these similaritiesusing Processability Theory, a cognitive theory of SLA which posits that learners create a cognitive 'interlanguage' which has predictable structural stages. Plag claims that similarities between creoles result from the language 'fossilising' at one of these stages. A large-scale typological investigation of the predictions of Plag's theory has yet to be conducted. My project examines the predictions it makes for Cameroon Pidgin English (CPE), a Creole spoken widely in Cameroon, by creating a typological inventory of linguistic features likely to have influenced CPE. The inventory will be used to create a set of predictions for CPE's structure based on Processability Theory, which will then be compared to data from a corpus (searchable digital database) of CPE, to empirically test the theory. The findings of this project will contribute to our understanding of how language structures emerge in contact situations.Research questions- Based on the syntactic structures found in its superstrate and substrate languages, what predictions does Processability Theory make for the syntax of CPE?- Do the syntactic structures present in the corpus of CPE match the predictions made by Processability Theory?Research methodsThe methodology for this project is based on Plag's Interlanguage Hypothesis (Plag 2008), using Pienemann's Processability Theory (Pienemann 1998), and involves the following stages:- Identify a set of syntactic feature parameters, including structures such as noun phrases, verb phrases, constituent order, relative clauses and other complex clauses.- Identify possible substrate languages - including Benue-Congo languages spoken around Douala where CPE is believed to have developed, and the substrate languages of Sierra Leonean Krio, with which CPE had extended contact.- Source grammars for these languages to identify their syntactic features, using library resources. Grammars unavailable at Sussex can be sourced at SOAS, a CHASE University, which I can access as an alumna.- Create a set of predictions for CPE for each parameter based on the structures of English and CPE's substrate languages using Processability Theory.- Test the predictions against the structures found in CPE using corpus searches to identify the strategy used for each parameter.This method also creates comparable sets of syntactic features for CPE and its substrate languages which can be used for future comparative or phylogenetic work.
这个项目研究第二语言习得(SLA)在克里奥尔语发展中的作用。尽管克里奥尔语产生于世界各地不同的语言环境中,但它们通常有着相似的语法。Plag(2008)用可加工性理论解释了这些相似性,这是一种二语习得的认知理论,认为学习者创造了一种具有可预测结构阶段的认知“中介语”。普拉格声称,克里奥尔语之间的相似之处是由于语言在其中一个阶段的“同化”。一个大规模的类型学调查的预测普拉格的理论尚未进行。我的项目研究它的预测喀麦隆洋泾浜英语(CPE),在喀麦隆广泛使用的克里奥尔语,通过创建一个类型学的语言特征可能会影响CPE的库存。该清单将被用来创建一组预测CPE的结构的基础上加工性理论,然后将比较数据从语料库(可搜索的数字数据库)的CPE,以经验检验的理论。研究问题-基于其上层语言和底层语言的句法结构,可加工性理论对CPE的句法结构有何预测?- CPE语料库中的句法结构是否符合可加工性理论的预测?研究方法本研究以Plag的中介语假设(Plag 2008)为基础,运用Pienemann的可加工性理论(Pienemann 1998),包括以下几个阶段:-确定一组句法特征参数,包括名词短语、动词短语、语序、关系从句和其他复杂从句等结构。-确定可能的底层语言-包括CPE据信已经发展的杜阿拉周围的贝努埃-刚果语言,以及CPE与之有广泛联系的塞拉利昂Krio的底层语言。这些语言的源语法,以确定其语法功能,使用库资源。在苏塞克斯大学无法获得的语法可以在SOAS获得,一所追逐大学,我可以作为校友访问。使用可处理性理论,基于英语和CPE的基底语言的结构,为每个参数创建一组CPE的预测。使用语料库搜索对CPE中发现的结构进行测试,以确定用于每个参数的策略。这种方法还为CPE及其底层语言创建了可比较的句法特征集,可用于未来的比较或系统发育工作。
