Abstract The goal of this study is to argue for a more widespread application of a uniform representation of Numeral Noun Constructions (NNCs) which captures both patterns with higher numerals (≥5, NumH) agreeing in case with the modified noun (case matching pattern) or bearing a distinct case from a noun (case independence pattern) in Polish and in other languages. Our account draws on the analysis of cardinal numerals in Bailyn (2004) in which both agreeing and non-agreeing numerals are placed within the projection (QP) of the functional head FQ, but contrary to Bailyn (2004), it advocates a predominant cardinal-as-specifier representation of NNCc and complex NNCs in Polish, a language whose numeral/quantificational system is fairly challenging. We propose that many cases discussed in Bošković (2006), Ionin and Matushansky (2006), Kayne (2010), Danon (2012), Norris (2014) and Willim (2015) may have a uniform representation. In short, both the case matching and the case independence patterns are represented as equivalent to the cardinal-as-specifier representation. This serves to preserve derivational and structure building transparency and avoids the issue of look-ahead and the No Tampering ban (Chomsky 2000, 2001; Stepanov 2001, 2007). In the spirit of Burzio’s (1986) Generalization we submit that the case valuation capacity of FQ is conditioned directly by an independent case (feature) of NumP occupying FQ’s specifier position. Our proposal receives further support from recent work on the structure of complex numerals in Di Sciullo (2015, 2017) and Kayne (2016), where their component parts are combined in asymmetric structures involving silent functional projections.

基数和复数作为说明符

摘要这项研究的目的是主张更广泛地应用数字名词构造(NNC)的统一表示形式,该形式可以捕获具有较高数字(≥5,NumH)的两种模式,并且与修饰名词(大小写匹配模式)一致或带有波兰语和其他语言中名词(大小写独立模式)的不同大小写。我们的分析基于Bailyn(2004)中的基数数字分析,在该基数中,一致数字和非一致数字都位于功能头FQ的投影(QP)内,但与Bailyn(2004)相反,它主张主要基数-作为NNCc和复杂NNC的指定者表示形式,波兰语是一种数字/量化系统颇具挑战性的语言。我们建议在Bošković(2006),Ionin和Matushansky(2006),Kayne(2010),Danon(2012),Norris(2014)和Willim(2015)可能具有统一的表示形式。简而言之,案例匹配模式和案例独立性模式都表示为等同于基数指定者表示。这有助于保持派生和结构构建的透明性,避免了超前和禁止篡改的问题(Chomsky 2000,2001; Stepanov 2001,2007)。本着Burzio(1986)概括的精神,我们认为FQ的案例评估能力直接取决于NumP占据FQ指定者位置的独立案例(特征)。我们的建议得到了Di Sciullo(2015,2017)和Kayne(2016)关于复数结构的最新研究的进一步支持,在这些复数结构中,它们的组成部分组合成涉及无声功能投影的不对称结构。诺里斯(2014)和威利姆(2015)可能具有统一的表述。简而言之,案例匹配模式和案例独立性模式都表示为等同于基数指定者表示。这有助于保持派生和结构构建的透明性,避免了超前和禁止篡改的问题(Chomsky 2000,2001; Stepanov 2001,2007)。本着Burzio(1986)概括的精神,我们认为FQ的案例评估能力直接取决于NumP占据FQ指定者位置的独立案例(特征)。我们的建议得到了Di Sciullo(2015,2017)和Kayne(2016)关于复数结构的最新研究的进一步支持,在这些复数结构中,它们的组成部分组合成涉及无声功能投影的不对称结构。诺里斯(2014)和威利姆(2015)可能具有统一的表述。简而言之,案例匹配模式和案例独立性模式都表示为等同于基数指定者表示。这有助于保持派生和结构构建的透明性,避免了超前和禁止篡改的问题(Chomsky 2000,2001; Stepanov 2001,2007)。本着Burzio(1986)概括的精神,我们认为FQ的案例评估能力直接取决于NumP占据FQ指定者位置的独立案例(特征)。我们的建议得到了Di Sciullo(2015,2017)和Kayne(2016)关于复数结构的最新研究的进一步支持,在这些复数结构中,它们的组成部分组合成涉及无声功能投影的不对称结构。
