We use model theory to rigorously evaluate Q-Theory as proposed in Shih and Inkelas 2019 as an alternative to Autosegmental Phonology. We find that Q-Theory is remarkably similar to Autosegmental Phonology, contra some of Shih and Inkelas's claims. In particular, Q-Theory does not eschew the association relation, in Q-Theory the tone-bearing unit is the vowel, and Q-Theory and Autosegmental Phonology are equivalent in terms of the constraints they can express. However, this formal analysis clarifies the truly novel contribution of Q-Theory, which is the empirical claim that all segments are tripartite.

Q理论与自动分段表示形式的形式比较

我们使用模型理论来严格评估Q值理论,如Shih和Inkelas 2019所提出的,以替代自动音节学。与Shih和Inkelas的某些主张相反,我们发现Q理论与Autosegmental音系学非常相似。特别是,Q-理论不回避关联关系,在Q-理论中,音调承载单元是元音,而Q-理论和自动段音节在它们可以表达的约束方面是等效的。但是,这种形式化的分析阐明了Q理论的真正新颖的贡献,这是所有分段都是三方的经验性主张。
