Abstract

Optimality Theory ( Optimality Theory , hereinafter referred to as OT ) , in particular, the emergence and rise of the bi-directional OT ( bidirectional OT ) for us to examine and explain the phenomenon of the past usually been considered to be irrelevant phenomenon , the form, for example - meaning asymmetric , provides a new perspective . The study is based on the two-step integration policy , the main test of the intrinsic link between the syntax preferred language users preferred , as well as the interaction between of when optimization and lasted optimization based on context parameters in order to build and verify of the total - which lasted an optimized architecture , that conform to the OT mode . To this end, we must answer the following three questions : What are the causes of ( a ) traditional OT restrictions mechanism ? ( B ) the syntax preferred language users preferred interact in what way ? ( C ) how form model to explain based on context parameters of - lasted optimization paradigm ? based on the three research questions , the commencement of the three- way forward : the first level of review the bidirectional OT study and individual OT research based on the theoretical framework in the form of significance asymmetry to establish conform to the the OT mode of critical basis . With OT, especially bi- OT and the rise of issues and academic problems , the form of significant asymmetry between language form and meaning of a different constitutive relations , such as a language not in the form of multiple semantic phase with match, or a semantic no or multiple forms of language to match . This article will be involved in six forms of significant asymmetry , ambiguity ( Ambiguity ) , the manifold shape ( optionality ) , the form of non - representational ( ineffability ) , meaning non - the characterization ( uninterprebility ) , completely blocked ( the total blocking ) and partially blocked ( partial blocking ) : ambiguity : refers to a form more than just the phenomenon ; shaped manifold : In contrast to the former , referring to the phenomenon of a righteous multiforme ;
