  • Direct Optimality Theory: Representation as Pure Markedness

  • Chris Golston
  • Journal:
    Language / Volume 72 / Issue 4 / December 1996
    Published online by Cambridge University Press:
    19 February 2026, pp. 713-748

  • I present a model of phonological representation which represents morphemes in terms of constraint violations rather than strings of segments or root nodes. The formalism allows representation to be uniform throughout the phonology, mandates permanent underspecification of unmarked structure, derives the linear order of segments within a morpheme, and allows representation and evaluation to be conflated. Marked types of morphology (infixes, circumfixes, zero affixes; subtractive, reduplicative and templatic morphology) are represented in exactly the same way as roots. The markedness of such morphology is argued to follow from the high ranking of the violated constraints in question.

  • Gradients in Auxiliary Selection with Intransitive Verbs

  • Antonella Sorace
  • Journal:
    Language / Volume 76 / Issue 4-Part1 / December 2000
    Published online by Cambridge University Press:
    19 February 2026, pp. 859-890

  • The primary purpose of this study is to present evidence, based on experimental data from Western European languages, that there is orderly variation in the choice of perfective auxiliary with intransitive verbs. Specifically, auxiliary selection is sensitive to a hierarchy of aspectual/thematic verb types: some verbs require a given auxiliary categorically, whereas others allow both auxiliaries to a greater or lesser extent depending on their position on the hierarchy. It is argued that this gradience has potentially important implications for the unaccusative hypothesis, and more generally for theories of the lexicon-syntax interface.
