摘　　要：作为一种建构性操作,合并在近年来的最简方案句法研究中起着越来越重要的作用。围绕“合并是否受限”这个问题主要有“合并受限”和“合并自由”两大思路。文章首先从合并的两种形式(外合并和内合并)分析了这两大思路的主要观点,其次讨论了它们所面临的主要问题,以及合并的演变及合并受限可能的来源。分析认为,合并需要受到限制,但这些限制不是来自特征的限制,而是来自3个方面:与运算高效性有关的条件、可参与合并的成分和接口层所施加的条件。As a structure building operation, Merge plays an increasingly important role in recent studies of Minimalistsyntax. Two approaches can be observed towards the question of “Merge free or not”: Merge constrained and Mergefree. This paper firstly analyzes the main ideas of these two approaches from the perspective of External Merge andInternal Merge, followed by the discussion of their problems. By evaluating these two approaches, this paper alsodiscusses the significance of the development of Merge, and points out the potential sources of the constraints imposedon Merge. It is argued that rather than by features, Merge should be constrained by the following three factors: 1)conditions related to computational efficiency, 2) syntactic objects that can participate in Merge, and 3) conditionsimposed by interfaces. By this analysis, it can be helpful to capture the recent development of Merge operation andfurther our understanding of Minimalist syntax as well.
