    摘要: 一個乘法數詞有兩種可能的語序：位數詞可能置於乘數詞前後，稱為位數詞
    置前與位數詞置後語序。這項類型學差異的重要性長期被學界忽視，但Her and Allassonnière-Tang (2022)指出這兩種語序的分布應不是隨機的，因為大部分位數詞置前語言集中於非洲，其餘地區則以位數詞置後語言為主。根據這項地理分布，他們提出一個假說：人類在遷離非洲前已開始使用乘法數詞；他們並指出位數詞置前語序在理論上的優勢能進一步支持這個假說。本論文論證位數詞置前語序更能滿足剛發展出乘法數詞的早期人類的需求，並試圖解釋為何位數詞語序的傾向會從偏向置前語序轉為偏向置後語序。

    基於相關文獻，本論文強調兩點：第一，語言是人類產生精確數量概念以及
    操作這些概念之算術能力的必要條件；從人類獲得語言能力到遷離非洲，這之間有長達三萬年的時間能讓人類發展乘法數詞，這為Her and Allassonnière-Tang(2022)的乘法數詞單一起源假說提供支持。第二，乘法數詞的句法結構與線性化理論預測絕大部分乘法數詞應採位數詞置後語序，違反語言事實，這顯示功能性的因素（如溝通需求或語言處理需求）對位數詞語序的影響應大於句法結構。因此，本論文基於Her and Allassonnière-Tang (2022)的假說提出理論，說明位數詞置前語序產生的語言處理負擔較小；但該語序也帶來複雜數詞的加法／乘法歧意。本論文接著討論Her et al. (2022)提出的支持Her and Allassonnière-Tang (2022)假說的一些實證證據，並指出複雜數詞中負責消除加法／乘法歧意的顯性標記是鞏固位數詞置前語序優越性的關鍵證據。最後，本論文透過討論三項猜想，試圖解釋為何現今的語言轉為傾向位數詞置後語序。
    A multiplicative numeral has two possible word orders, in which the numeral base precedes or follows the multiplier, namely the base-initial and base-final orders. This typological variation has long been seen as trivial, but Her and Allassonnière-Tang (2022) indicate that the distribution of these two word orders does not seem to be random, for most base-initial languages clusters in Africa, while the rest of the world is filled with base-final languages. Based on this geographical distribution, they propose a hypothesis that humans already used multiplicative numerals before the migration out of Africa, and this hypothesis can be further supported on a basis of a theoretical advantage of the base-initial order. In this thesis, I aim to argue that the base-initial order is more suitable for the need of early humans who began developing multiplicative numerals, and try to explain the change of preference from the base-initial
    to the base-final order.

    According to the literature, two points are highlighted: first, language is a necessary condition for humans to hold the concepts of precise numbers and the arithmetic ability manipulating them, and there is a 30,000-year gap between the time humans got language ability and the time humans migrated out of Africa for humans to develop multiplicative numerals. This gap further corroborates Her and Allassonnière-Tang’s single origin hypothesis of multiplicative numerals (2022). Second, the syntactic structure of multiplicative numerals and the theories of linearization predict that multiplicative numerals should generally be base-final, which is against the observed
    fact, showing that functional factors (e.g., communication or processing needs) should have higher influence on the base order than syntactic structures. Therefore, I first
    propose a theory based on Her and Allassonnière-Tang’s hypothesis (2022) to show that the base-initial order generates less processing burden, but it brings an additive/multiplicative ambiguity of complex numerals. Next, I discuss some pieces of empirical evidence in Her et al. (2022) supporting Her and Allassonnière-Tang’s hypothesis, and show that overt markings on complex numerals for the additive/multiplicative disambiguation is the key to confirm the superiority of the base-initial order. Lastly, I try to explain why languages nowadays turned to favor the base-final order through the discussion on three speculations.
