Representation

表征式

 

A term used especially in generative linguistics, to refer to the relationship of correspondence existing between the successive levels of analysis which are recognized in generating a sentence. The data of language are represented as a configuration of elements at a given level (e.g. ‘semantic / phonological / deep-structural / systematic phonetic ... representation’ of a sentence, and the rules of the grammar assign structural descriptions to these representations. Different approaches can be distinguished by their principles of representation and the issue of representation is at the centre of several models, notably underspecification theory.

 

主要是生成语言学用来指生成一个句子时各相继分析平面之间的对应关系。语言数据在一给定平面上“表征”为一个成分构型(例如“语义/音系/深层结构/系统语音...表征式”),语法的规则则将结构描写指派给这些表征式。不同的理论可根据不同的表征原则加以区分,表征问题也是好几种模型,特别是不完全赋值理论的中心问题。
