New page

The term '''Θ-role (Theta role)''' is a synonym of [[thematic role]] or [[semantic role]].

=== Comments ===
This is a typical Chomskyan abbreviated term (cf. terms like ''d-structure'', ''r-expression'', ''m-command''), used by many syntacticians working in a Chomskyan framework.

=== Synonyms ===
*[[semantic role]]
*[[thematic relation]]
*[[thematic role]]
*[[case: deep case, case role, case relation]]
*[[semantic function]]
*[[kāraka]]

=== Origin ===
This Greek-letter based abbreviation of [[thematic role]] was introduced by Chomsky (1981), for unknown reasons. However, since Chomskyan syntax has generally not been interested in the actual semantic content of semantic roles, use of the term '''Θ-role (Theta role)''' probably also indicates the user's primary concern with the syntactic aspects of semantic roles.
