乔姆斯基Noam Chomsky
乔姆斯基Noam Chomsky诺姆·乔姆斯基,美国语言学家、哲学家、政治活动家,转换-生成语法的创始人。
1928年12月7日出生于美国宾夕法尼亚州的费城。
早年就学于宾夕法尼亚大学,攻读语言学、哲学和数学,1947年,在哈里斯的影响下他开始研究语言学。
1951年在宾夕法尼亚大学完成硕士论文《现代希伯莱语语素音位学》,1955年又在该校完成博士论文《转换分析》,获得博士学位。
从1955年秋天开始,他一直在麻省理工学院工作,曾任该校语言学与哲学系主任,并任该校认知科学研究中心主任,为语言学界培养了一批有素养的学者。
乔姆斯基把语言研究和数学、现代数理逻辑结合起来,提出了新的语言理论,即转换生成语法,形成了一个语言学的新派别,即转换生成语法学派。
他的语言学和哲学著作有:《句法结构》(1957)、《当前语言学理论中的争端》(1964)、《句法理论的若干问题》(1965)、《语言学的笛卡尔主义》(1966)、《语言和心灵》(1968)、《知识和自由问题》(1971)、《生成语法的语义学研究》(1972)、《语言理论的逻辑结构》(1975)、《语言论》(1975)、《规则与表达》(1980)等。
乔姆斯基研究的不是一般语言现象即语言的运用,而是语言能力。
他的转换生成语法就是关于语言能力的语法,这种语法理论的研究对象是“被理想化了的说话人和听话人的语言知识”。
他认为语言理论的主要任务是向人们提供选择语法时要依据的标准。
生成语法就是这样的语法理论,其中心思想是:某一语言的语法应该生成所有的句子。
他认为语言能力是说某种语言的人对这种语言的内在认识,而语言运用则是它具体使用语言的行动。
在一般情况下,语言能力和语言运用并不是符合的,语言运用并非语言能力的直接反映。
乔姆斯基说,他的语言理论与索绪尔的语言理论有一定联系,索绪尔是区别语言与言语的关系,而他是区别语言能力与语言运用的关系。
但是他认为必须否定索绪尔的下述观点:语言是意义和声音的网络。

TabooTaboo, or rather linguistic taboo, refers to an obscene, profane, or swear word or expression that is prohibited from general use by the educated and “polite” society. F or example, fuck, breast, shit, etc.5. ContextContext is regarded as constituted by all kinds of knowledge assumed to be shared by the speaker and the hearer, For example, the knowledge of the language used and the knowledge of the world, including the general knowledge about the world and the specific knowledge about the situation in which linguistic communication is taking place.I V. Answer the following questions according to what you’ve learned in linguistics.1. State briefly your understanding of the differences between the term acquisition and theterm learning in language acquisition study?The distinction between acquisition and learning was proposed by the American SLA scholar Stephen Krashen on the assumption that they are different processes. Acquisition refers to the gradual and subconscious development of ability in the first language by using it naturally in daily communicative situations. Learning, however, is defined as a conscious process of accumulating knowledge of a second language usually obtained in school settings. It is recognized that children acquire their native language without explicit learning, while a second language is more commonly learned but to some degree may also be acquired, depending on the environmental setting and the input received by the L2 learner. A rule can be learned before it is internalized (i.e. acquired), but having learned a rule does not necessarily precluded having to acquire it later.2. What are the four maxims of the Cooperative Principle? Please give examples to showhow the flouting of these maxims gives rise to conversational implicature (give at least two examples, each flouting a different maxim)The four maxims of the cooperative principle are maxim of quantity, maxim of quality, maxim of manner and maxim of relation.Example1A: The hostess is an awful bore. Don’t you think?B: The roses in the garden are beautiful, aren’t they?This is said when it is known to both A and B that it is entirely possible for B to make a comment on the hostess. Thus B is saying something irrelevant to what A has just said, and flouting the maxim of relation. The implicature produced is “I don’t wish to talk about the hostess in such a rude manner.”Example 2A : Shall we get something for the kids”B: Yes. But I veto I-C-E-C-R-E-A-M.This is said when it is known to both A and B that B has no difficulty in pronouncing the word “ice-cream”. Thus B has flouted the maxim of manner. The implicature produced is “I don’t want the kids to know we are talking about ice-cream.”。
乔姆斯基言语行为述评中文
乔姆斯基言语行为述评中文摘要:1.乔姆斯基的背景和成就2.斯金纳的语言学习理论3.乔姆斯基对斯金纳理论的批评4.乔姆斯基的语言行为认知理论5.乔姆斯基理论的影响和启示正文:1.乔姆斯基的背景和成就乔姆斯基(Noam Chomsky)是一位知名的语言学家、哲学家和政治评论家。
他在语言学领域有着重要的贡献,被认为是20 世纪最重要的语言学家之一。
乔姆斯基的《生成语法》被认为是现代语言学的奠基之作,他提出了“语言习得机制”的理论,认为人类天生具有学习语言的能力。
2.斯金纳的语言学习理论斯金纳(B.F.Skinner)是一位著名的行为主义心理学家,他的语言学习理论认为,语言学习是一个简单的刺激- 反应过程。
斯金纳认为,语言行为是通过环境因素和外部刺激来形成的,个体通过与环境的交互,形成语言行为。
他强调了环境和外部刺激对语言学习的重要作用。
3.乔姆斯基对斯金纳理论的批评乔姆斯基在1959 年的《语言行为评述》一文中,对斯金纳的语言学习理论进行了批评。
他认为,斯金纳的理论过于简化了语言学习的过程,忽略了个体在语言学习中的主观能动性。
乔姆斯基认为,语言学习是一个复杂的认知过程,需要个体发挥主观能动性,通过理解和应用语言规则来实现。
4.乔姆斯基的语言行为认知理论乔姆斯基提出了一种新的语言行为认知理论,他认为,语言行为是由个体内部的语言规则和结构来决定的。
乔姆斯基认为,语言学习是一个天生的、内在的过程,个体通过内在的语言习得机制,自然而然地学习语言。
他的理论强调了个体在语言学习中的主观能动性和内在结构。
5.乔姆斯基理论的影响和启示乔姆斯基的语言行为认知理论对语言学领域产生了深远的影响。
他的理论推动了语言学从行为主义向认知主义的发展,为后来的语言学家提供了重要的启示。

乔姆斯基(Noam Chomsky)语⾔习得理论乔姆斯基(Noam Chomsky, 1928--),美国语⾔学家,转换-⽣成语法的创始⼈。
1928年12⽉7⽇出⽣于美国宾⼣法尼亚州的费城。
1947年,在哈⾥斯的影响下他开始研究语⾔学。
1951年在宾⼣法尼亚⼤学完成硕⼠论⽂《现代希伯莱语语素⾳位学》,1955年⼜在该校完成博⼠论⽂《转换分析》,获得博⼠学位。
从1955年秋天开始,他⼀直在⿇省理⼯学院⼯作,曾任该校语⾔学与哲学系主任,并任该校认知科学研究中⼼主任,为语⾔学界培养了⼀批有素养的学者。
1 乔姆斯基的普遍语法理论 乔姆斯基在《语⾔与⼼智》⼀书中提出了“普遍语法”(Universal Grammar)的概念,以后简称为(UG)。
他假设⼉童⼀落⽣⼤脑⾥就存在⼀种独特的语⾔习得机制(Language AcquisitionDevice),以后简称LAD。
这种机制使得⼉童从周围听到有限的句⼦却能说出⽆限的句⼦。
他还提出⼀个语⾔习得的公式:最初的语⾔资料→LAD→语⾔能⼒。
乔姆斯基认为⼉童头脑中的LAD的主要组成部分是语⾔普遍特征,即普遍语法(UG)和⼀套评价系统。
⼉童听到外来语⾔后启动普遍语法,并在普遍语法的指导和控制下,在外来语⾔材料的基础上,通过假设——演绎的⽅法,在头脑中逐步形成有关母语的、系统的语法知识。
UG存在于⼈的⼤脑中,帮助⼈类习得语⾔,是⼈与⽣俱来的语⾔初始状态。
UG以第⼀语⾔习得速度快、知识准确、具有创造⼒等为依据研究第⼀语⾔。
乔姆斯基关于UG的假设为我们解释了为什么⼩孩⼦⼀⽣下来,⽤不了3-5年,不⽤接受系统的教育便已掌握了⾃⼰母语的主要特点。
UG是所有⼈类语⾔都遵循的⼀些共同原则和规则,但是如果语⾔知识仅仅是这些原则的话,那全世界的⼈就应该说同⼀种语⾔,但事实并⾮如此。
为了更合理的解释这⼀现象,就要应⽤到上⾯提到的评价系统。
也就是UG学说中的“原则和参数理论”(Principle and parameters in syntacticaltheory)。
NoamChomsky简介
Noam Chomsky生平[编辑]乔姆斯基出生在宾夕法尼亚州的费城。
他的父亲威廉·乔姆斯基(William Chomsky)是一位希伯来学者,来自一个后来被纳粹灭绝了的乌克兰小镇。
他的母亲艾尔西·乔姆斯基·西蒙诺夫斯基(Elsie Chomsky Simonofsky)是白俄罗斯人,但跟她的丈夫不同的是,她生长在美国,说“普通的纽约英语”。
他们两人的第一语言都是意第绪语,虽然乔姆斯基本人说父母在家禁止讲这种语言。
他说,他们住在分裂为“意第绪区”和“希伯来区”的犹太人聚居地,他的家庭认同后者,并用“纯粹的希伯来文化和文学”教导他。
乔姆斯基记得他的第一篇文章写于十岁那年,文章是论在巴塞罗那陷落之后,纳粹主义蔓延的威胁。
从十二岁或十三岁开始,乔姆斯基更加彻底地认同无政府主义。
他毕业于费城中央高中,从1945年起在宾夕法尼亚大学师从哲学家C·维斯特·切奇曼(C. West Churchman)、尼尔逊·古德曼(Nelson Goodman)和语言学家泽里格·哈里斯(Zellig Harris)学习哲学和语言学。
哈里斯对他讲授了自己在语言结构线性算子方面的发现。
乔姆斯基后来把这些解释为对来自标记系统的上下文无关文法产物的操作。
哈里斯的政治观点对乔姆斯基政治立场的形成产生了重要影响。
1949年,乔姆斯基和语言学家卡罗尔·沙茨结婚(Carol Schatz)。
婚后育有两个女儿分别是阿维瓦(Aviva,1957年)与戴安(Diane,1960年),和一个儿子哈里(Harry,1967年)。
乔姆斯基于1955年从宾夕法尼亚大学取得语言学博士学位,他的大部分博士研究是用四年时间以哈佛大学年轻学者的身份在哈佛大学完成的。
在博士论文中,他开始发现自己的一些语言学思想;后来他将这些进一步阐发,写成了他在语言学方面大概最有名的著作《句法结构》。

of speech sounds and (3) 声学acoustic _______ phonetics, which studies how the sounds are perceived by the hearer.4. vibration of the vocal_______ cords______ results in a quality of speech sounds called “voicing______”, which is a feature of all vowels and some consonants in english.5. there are two ways to transcribe speech sounds. the transcription with letter-symbols only and the transcription with letter-symbols together with the diacritics. the former is called broad_____ transcription while the latter is called narrow______ transcription.6. the sound [p] is pronounced

转换生成理论很快发展成为现代欧美语言学中最有影响的一种理论。
①乔姆斯基是一位富有探索精神的语言学家。
他的父亲是希伯来语学者。
受其影响,乔姆斯基最初把兴趣点放在研究希伯来语上。
他用结构主义的方法研究希伯莱语,后来发现这种方法有很大的局限性,转而探索新的方法,逐步建立起转换-生成语法,1957年出版的《句法结构》就是这一新方法的标志。
可这种用离散数学方法研究句法结构的方法论早在1930年便由鲁道夫·卡尔纳(Rudolph Car nap)提出。
转换规则由乔姆斯基的老师Zellig Harris提出。
而形态音位规则(Morphophonemic’s rule)则与布费尔德学派如出一辙。
乔姆斯基在《句法结构》一书中只是将这三种早已存在的研究方法进行了综合。
这种分析方法风靡全世界,冲垮了结构语言学的支配地位,因而被人们称为"乔姆斯基革命"。

1. Language is a system of arbitrary vocal symbols used for human communication.2. Design featuresDesign features refer to the defining properties of human language that distinguish it from any animal system of communication.1)Arbitrariness任意性There is no logical connection between meanings and sounds.On the other hand, language is not entirely arbitrary:2) Duality 二元性Language is a system, which consists of two sets of structures/levels两层结构. At the lower or basic level there is a structure of sounds, which are meaningless by themselves. But the sounds of language can be grouped and regrouped into a larger number of units of meaning, which are found at the higher level of the system.3) Creativity (or Productivity) 创造性Language is creative in that it makes possible the construction and interpretation of new signals by its users.4) Displacement 移位性Language can be used to refer to contexts removed from the immediate situations of the speaker. Language can be used to refer to things which are present or not present, real or imagined matters in the past, present, or future, or in far-away places.3. Functions of language1) informative (ideational)信息功能2) interpersonal 人际功能3) Performative施为功能4) Emotive (expressive)感情功能5) Phatic communion寒暄交谈6) Recreational娱乐功能7) Metalingual 元语言功能4.

SYNCHRONIC”共时, in which languages are treated as self-contained systems of communication at any particular time, and “DIACHRONIC”历时, in which the changes to which languages are subject in the course of time are treated historically7. Langue & Parole大题Saussure distinguished the abstract linguistic system shared by all the members of a speech community and the actual phenomena or data of linguistics as Langue and Parole.索绪尔用语言和言语来区别说话者的语言能力和语言上(表达)的实际表现或语料。
乔姆斯基的语言学理论
乔姆斯基的语言学理论据《圣经·旧约》上说,人类的祖先最初讲的是同一种语言。
他们在底格里斯河和幼发拉底河之间的巴比伦市定居,日子越过越好,决定修建一座可以通到天上去的高塔—巴比伦塔。
上帝大怒,决定让人世间的语言发生混乱,使人们互相言语不通。
这样就无法合作修建高塔.然而,人类在上帝面前从来就不是温顺的羔羊,他们总是在努力进行着不同语言之间的沟通.他们有的直接学习某种外语,有的对人类语言普遍规律进行探索,有的企图建立统一的世界语.从某种意上讲,这些有识之士都可以称作是再造巴比伦通天塔的工程师。
而转换生成语言学的创始人乔姆斯基无疑是其中最杰出的一位.一、乔姆斯基其人乔姆斯基(Noam Chomsky, 1928-- ),美国语言学家,转换-生成语法的创始人。
1928年12月7日出生于美国宾西法尼亚州的费城的一个犹太家庭,父亲是一位研究希伯来语的学者。
1947年,在哈里斯的影响下他开始研究语言学。
1951年在宾西法尼亚大学完成硕士论文《现代希伯莱语语素音位学》,1955年又在该校完成博士论文《转换分析》,获得博士学位。
从1955年秋天开始,他一直在麻省理工学院工作,曾任该校语言学与哲学系主任,并任该校认知科学研究中心主任,为语言学界培养了一批有素养的学者。
乔姆斯基是一位富有探索精神的语言学家。
最初,他用结构主义的方法研究希伯莱语,后来发现这种方法有很大的局限性,转而探索新的方法,逐步建立起转换-生成语法,1957年出版的《句法结构》就是这一新方法的标志。
这种分析方法风靡全世界,冲垮了结构语言学的支配地位,因而被人们称为"乔姆斯基革命"。
后来他又不断丰富和发展转换-生成语法的理论和方法,相继发表了《句法理论要略》、《深层结构、表层结构和语义解释》、《支配和约束论集》等重要著作,对世界语言学的发展方向产生了巨大的影响。
二、生成语言学理论发展阶段关于乔姆斯基理论发展的阶段,有三阶段四阶段五阶段等说法,为了方便讲述,我们采取三个阶段的说法。
Chomsky
相同: 都采用了二元对比的研究方法 都同意语言学的研究对象不是“言语”或语言运用,而是“语言” 或语言能力。
生成学派在句法学方面的观点 《句法结构》
(1)句法类 定义:句法类是指履行某一特定语法功能的单词类 或短语类 分类:单词类 短语类 单词类:单词类 又叫做词性(名词,动词, 形容词,副词) 句法类:名词短语(NP),动词短语(VP), 介词短语(PP),形容词短语(AP)
(2)句法位移 定义:句法位移是指一个句子的成分从原来的 位置位移到另 一个新位置 ①NP位移:NP位移涉及两种结构:被动句和提升结构, 被动句由主动句移位产生,NP移位不仅发生在被动句 中,而且发生在提升结构中,提升结构主要有两种一 类是含有提升动词的结构,另一类是含有提升形容词 的结构 ②Aux-位移:指如 be,have,do,may,can,shall,should之类的助动词从 原来的位置移动到句首 ③Wh-位移:主要发生在wh-问句中,包括直接wh-问 句和间接wh-问句以及关系分句
语言能力(competence)
VS
语言(langue)
不同: 索绪尔从社会角度观察问题,把“语言”看成“社会产物”,是 一个社团所遵循的必要惯例的集合; 乔姆斯基从心理学角度看问题,把语言能力看成是人脑的特性之一。 索绪尔的语言是“静态”的; 乔姆斯基的语言能力是动态的,是生成语言过程中的潜在能力。

语言习得机制(LAD)
? 儿童学习母语很快,并且毫不费劲。
? 尽管语言环境中存在着巨大差异,但是他们却获得相同 层面的语言能力。
? 儿童在有限的时间内,从对语言的有限熏陶学会了语言 的所有语法。
这些表明,婴儿生来就具备发展语言的倾向,正如同其 生来就学会走路一样。
第二语言习得(SLA)
音位规则是将形态表达 改变为音位表达的改写 规则。
标准理论时期
句子有深层结构(Deep structure) 和表层结构(Surface structure )深层结构是句子的抽象表达,即结构组织的底层平面, 他决定着如何解释这个句子。表层结构是句法表达的最后阶段, 为音位规则提供输入,它最接近我们平常所说的话,深层结构决 定意义,表层结构决定声音。 Chomsky 认为,生成语法包括三大组成部分:句法部分、音位 部分和语义部分。

短语结构规则 转换结构规则 形态音位规则
短语结构规则也叫改 写规则。这套规则生成 一串词素,又叫语符列 ,其次序也许正确,也 许不正确,再运用转换 规则。转换规则可以增 加词素、减少词素和改 变词素的次序。形态
? Competence: 在最理想的条件下,说话人/听话人所 掌握的语言知识。它是潜含的,只有在语言行为中观察 得到。语言能力是稳定的,长久的。语言能力在不同的 时间、地点、场合,表现为不同的语言行为。
? Performance: 语言运用是对语言知识在适当的场合 下的具体使用。它是表露在外面,可以直接观察。语言 运用是多变的,瞬息的。语言运用永远不能完全反映语 言能力,因为说话人受着记忆,情绪,劳累等条件的限 制。
(2)要简单(simple): 简化一切可以简化的规则,达到利用有 限的规则生成无限的句子。
(3)要清楚明白(explicit): 不许含糊不清,模棱两可。 (4)形式化(formal): 尽量避免用文字叙述ቤተ መጻሕፍቲ ባይዱ则,因为文字有
时不科学,不严谨;要象代数一样,用字母代替文字,用 公式代替叙述。 (5)要有循环性(recursive): 规则要能重复使用,才能生成无 限的句子。
Learned Knowledge To monitor
语言习得
Chomsky 推理人脑的初始状态包括人类的一切语言共同具有的 特点(普遍语法)。“普通语法是一切人类语言必须具有的原则、 条件和规则系统,代表了人类语言的最基本东西”对任何人来讲 都是不变的。每一种语言都要符合普通语法,只能在其他次要方 面有所不同。
生成语法
? 五十年代初--1965年 第一语言模式时期(The First language Model)
