空主语参数和汉语的无主句

文章在普遍语法的理论框架下讨论了汉语的无主句现象,指出:普遍语法中的参数并非总是两分的,非此即彼。空主语参数既不能直接证明汉语属于主语脱落的语言;通过将典型的非主语脱落语言作为参照物进行对比分析,汉语句子中的无主语现象也不符合空主语参数中非主语脱落的条件,而是显示出其自身的特殊性。

Null Subject Parameter and Null Subject in Chinese

This thesis is a study of the null subject phenomena in Chinese, embedding in the theoretical framework based on Universal Grammar. The thesis will argue that Null Subject Parameter is not appropriate in explaining and assuming Chinese as a null subject language. Parameters are not necessarily binary. In this case, Chinese null subject sentences have their own distinguishing features.
