言えそうなのに言わないのはなぜか ー学習者と母語話者の違いー Learners would say but native speakers wouldn’t: Constraints and creativity of constructions
Adele Goldberg(プリンストン大学 心理学部 教授)
題目:Choosing good-enough constructions
要旨:What are children trying to do when they learn language? They aim to understand others’ messages on the basis of witnessed formal cues, and aim to access patterns that will convey their intended messages. This requires them to learn a rich network of constructions, which are simply pairings of form and function, at varying levels of abstractness and complexity. What happens when an ideal combination of constructions is inaccessible? In this case, we all use a “good-enough” combination. I will explain how choosing good-enough constructions underlies a wide range of phenomena including: polysemy, language change, overextensions (labeling a cow, dog), grammatical overgeneralizations (e.g., She laughed me), L2 errors, and linguistic creativity. On this perspective, what makes an error an error is the existence of a different, more optimal combination of constructions.
