摘要

在“基于单词”、“基于范式”或“抽象”的屈折系统模型中(Blevins 2006,2016),只有完整的屈折词形式被认为是基本的;子词字符串不被视为不同的实体,而是由说话者通过多种屈折形式推断出的抽象概括。这些模型与“建设性”方法相反,“建设性”方法是从单个的、不同的子词单位到完整的词。一直以来支持抽象方法的一个论点是,它们在以普遍的非规范指数为特征的“融合”系统(如累积指数、扩展指数和形态结构)方面具有描述性优势(Stump 2016: 17-30)。通过对标准斯瓦希里语(一种通常被描述为“凝集”屈折的典型语言,并适用于建设性的、基于语素的分析)动词屈折中的非规范指数和任意分布规律的屈折现象的探索,本文将论证抽象系统同样适用于“凝集”屈折,提供更大的经验似是而非的可能性,在某些情况下具有描述性优势。

Swahili verbs and the value of abstractive accounts for agglutinating inflection
Within “word-based”, “paradigm-based” or “abstractive” models of inflectional systems ( Blevins 2006 , 2016 ), only full inflected wordforms are considered primitives; subword strings are treated not as distinct entities, but as abstract generalisations inferred by speakers across multiple inflected forms. These models stand in contrast to “constructive” approaches, which proceed from individual, distinct subword units to full words. An argument consistently adduced in favour of abstractive approaches is that they afford a descriptive advantage regarding “fusional” systems characterised by pervasive non-canonical exponence, such as cumulative exponence, extended exponence, and morphomic structure ( Stump 2016 : 17–30). Via an exploration of inflectional phenomena including non-canonical exponence and arbitrary distributional regularities in the verb inflection of standard Swahili, a language usually described as exemplifying “agglutinating” inflection and amenable to constructive, morpheme-based, analyses, this paper will argue that abstractive systems are equally applicable to “agglutinating” inflection, offering greater empirical plausibility and in some cases descriptive advantage.
