从汉语音系看优选论的修订 = Revisit optimality theory:Perspective of Chinese phonology. / Wee Lian-Hee.
// Contemporary linnguistics. 2014, Vol. 16, No.3. 2014.p. 346-357. As a generative theory of phonology,Optimality Theory provides an architecture of abstract grammar where all possibilities corresponding to an input form are evaluated by a universal set of constraints that have a language-specific ranking hierarchy so that an optimal output would be identified as the phonetic manifestation of some underlying phonological form.Under this conception,the notion grammaticality is no longer one of perfect accordance to rules of a given language,but rather of maximal parsimony with the ranked hierarchy of universal constraints.In principle,OT encompasses all languages so that,specific to Chinese,it would be merely a matter of finding the right constraint ranking.However,while OT has prompted phonologists to study Chinese from this perspective,the intricate patterns in Chinese can in turn refine the architecture of OT.This paper illustrates these Chinese contributions using examples drawn from(1) the structural sensitivity of tone sandhi,(2) the historical shift from voicing contrasts in prevocalic plosives to tonal register contrasts and(3) loanword phonology.
