摘要
生成therebe结构以词汇矩阵LA中包含there为前提,be是个非宾动词,不能核查副主语DP的格特征。LF缀词分析法、部分格分析法和一致操作分析法都把DP看成有格特征核查要求的题元,there没有可以核查的格特征,因而都不能解释there和DP的格核查。本文认为,通过与Pr合并,DP成为小句的谓词,其固有格特征渗透到[Spec,PrP]位置的there,使there具有格特征,该特征随后通过一致操作被T核查或赋值。
Derivation of there be construction presupposes there in LA, and be is an unaccusative verb unable to check the case feature of the associate DP. LF affix analysis, Partitive Case analysis and Agree analysis all treat DP as an argument having case features to be checked, and believe there have no case feature to be checked, hence they are unable to account for case checking of DP and there. This article assumes merging with Pr, DP becomes predicate of SC, percolation of the inherent case feature of the associate to there in [Spec, PrP] makes there case-marked; this case feature is checked or valued by T through Agree afterwards.
