The paper offers an analysis of pied-piping within the theoretical framework of Word Grammar. This framework combines cognitive linguistics with dependency grammar, so it assumes that the full power of domain-general cognition is available for syntax, and that syntactic structure can be conceived as a network of relations between individual words. In this network, words are related by at least two kinds of link: dependencies and ‘landmark’ links that determine word order. To handle the special characteristics of pied-piping, the analysis also includes a single special relation, ‘pipee’, which links the ‘piper’ (the wh-type word) to the word which replaces it in the landmark structure. The analysis is applied in detail to English, and then compared with previous analyses and extended to accommodate both the pied-piping with inversion found in Meso-American languages, and the boundary markers found in other languages.

认知中的杂乱无章

本文在单词语法的理论框架内提供了对pied-piping的分析。该框架将认知语言学与依存语法相结合，因此它假设域一般认知的全部力量可用于句法，并且句法结构可以被视为单个单词之间的关系网络。在这个网络中，单词至少通过两种链接相关：依赖关系和决定词序的“地标”链接。为了处理 pied-piping 的特殊特性，分析还包括一个特殊关系“pipee”，它将“piper”（什么-type word) 到在地标结构中替换它的单词。该分析详细应用于英语，然后与以前的分析进行比较并扩展以适应中美洲语言中发现的带有倒置的花边，以及其他语言中发现的边界标记。
