An Entity of Type: work, from Named Graph: http://dbpedia.org, within Data Space: dbpedia.org

Move α is a feature of the Revised Extended Standard Theory (REST) of transformational grammar developed by Noam Chomsky in the late 1970s. The term refers to the relation between an indexed constituent and its trace t, e.g., the relation of whom and [t] in the example Whom1 do you think you are kidding t1 ? In the 1990s Minimalist Program, it became a structure-building operation together with "Merge"."α" is the placeholder symbol for the moved constituent.The constituent (whom) and its trace (t) are said to form a "chain".

  • Move α is a feature of the Revised Extended Standard Theory (REST) of transformational grammar developed by Noam Chomsky in the late 1970s. The term refers to the relation between an indexed constituent and its trace t, e.g., the relation of whom and [t] in the example Whom1 do you think you are kidding t1 ? In the 1990s Minimalist Program, it became a structure-building operation together with "Merge"."α" is the placeholder symbol for the moved constituent.The constituent (whom) and its trace (t) are said to form a "chain". A term used in government-binding theory to refer to a single, universal movement rule, which subsumes all specific movement rules; also called alpha movement. The rule permits the movement of any phrasal or lexical category from one part of a sentence to another in such a way that the operation involves substitution or (Chomsky-) adjunction. The application of the transformation is restricted by the subjacency principle of bounding (sub-)theory, and its output is subject to a variety of filters, principles, etc. stated by other (sub-)theories of GB. See also affect alpha. In syntax, the most general formulation of possible movement permitted by a rule. More specific rules include move NP and move wh, which in turn are more general than specific transformations such as those involved in passivization. The single transformational rule occurring in most versions of GB. Usually expressed as 'Move-alpha', it can be stated more fully as 'Move any category to a different position'. The massive overgeneration which this rule would produce in isolation is heavily constrained by the other components of the grammar. Chomsky (1980). "Move α" in practice means "Move any constituent anywhere"."Affect Alpha" is a generalization to the effect of "Do anything to anything". The latter is viewed with suspicion by proponents of REST as an overgeneralization. "Move α" marks a shift of attention in transformational grammar in around 1980, away from focussing on specific rules (the only "rule" is "Move α") to "Principles" constraining them. (en)
  • Move α, α-передвижение, или трансформация «передвинь α» — в современной генеративной лингвистике: правило передвижения составляющей в новую позицию при определенных условиях. Это передвижение может осуществляться только в фонологически пустую позицию либо посредством перемещения к другой составляющей путём . Move α — единственный тип трансформаций, который не был отвергнут в силу появления и . Также этот тип трансформаций подчиняется принципу сохранения структуры, согласно которому передвижение должно быть мотивированным, то есть обусловленным правилами грамматики. В современном генеративизме принято считать, что Move α противопоставляется Скрэмблингу в качестве передвижения , которое характерно для языков с фиксированным порядком слов, к примеру для английского, в то время как скрэмблинг распространён в языках со свободным порядком слов. Ключевую роль в утверждении принципов теории перемещений (Move α) сыграли американские лингвисты Г. Ласник и . (ru)
