项目摘要

The project explores long-distance dependencies, especially in interrogative and relative constructions, using two grammatical frameworks (HPSG and the Minimalist Program).In a first step, the data situation will be improved through corpus analyses and inquiries with native speakers. This will yield, for the first time, a broad empirical and theoretical coverage and a maximally complete description of long-distance dependencies in French, an area that has been only fragmentarily described up to now. The overreaching objective of the project is to answer the question of how complex, numerous and construction-specific the elements of syntactic description must be in order to explain the phenomena contained in a broad sample of data that show long-distance-dependencies in French. The selected frameworks present two extreme poles of possible interpretations. The Minimalist Program requires modeling by means of atomic units (lexical entries with head status), which interact with very general syntactic principles of a very local range. Similarly to what is claimed by construction grammar, HPSG has expanded the term "lexicon" and can formulate, if necessary, complex description units in which larger constellations and the range of constraints are already defined. In an interpretation within construction grammar, this can lead to the formulation of a construction family, as required in Sag (2010). At the end of the project funding period, a detailed comparison of the two analyses is planned to be available.

该项目使用两个语法框架（HPSG 和 Minimalist Program）探索长距离依赖关系，特别是疑问句和关系结构。第一步，将通过语料库分析和母语人士查询来改善数据情况。这将首次产生广泛的经验和理论覆盖范围，以及对法语长距离依赖性的最完整的描述，而迄今为止，这一领域仅得到了零星的描述。该项目的总体目标是回答这样的问题：句法描述的元素必须有多复杂、数量众多和特定于结构，才能解释显示法语中长距离依赖性的广泛数据样本中包含的现象。所选框架提出了可能解释的两个极端。极简程序需要通过原子单元（具有中心状态的词汇条目）进行建模，原子单元与非常局部范围的非常一般的句法原则相互作用。与构造语法所声称的类似，HPSG扩展了术语“词典”，并且如果需要的话，可以制定复杂的描述单元，其中已经定义了更大的星座和约束范围。在构造语法的解释中，这可以导致构造族的表述，如 Sag (2010) 中所要求的。在项目资助期结束时，计划对两种分析进行详细比较。
