Linguistics:Introduction,Significance,语言是人类特有的属性，也很可能是区别人类和其他东吴的唯一特性。遗憾的是，我们对自己的语言了解得太少。,语言的本质是什么？,语言是怎样产生的？,语言的意义从何而来？,语言是如何习得的？,语言和意识、智能、和思维、现实之间究竟是一种什么关系？,语言对人类的行为有什么影响？,Alexander:Who are we?Where,dowe,come from?Wh,at,have we done?Why do we do,th,ese?,行为科学与自然科学落后了太多，人类对自身的了解少的可怜。,在这个理性的世界上，唯一缺乏理性认识、缺乏理性解释的恰恰是人类自己。,人类复杂行为,-,人会思维,人与动物区别：人有智能，人会思维,-,人有区别性行为特征,智能和思维,-,人与动物根本区别？,语言,-,人与动物根本区别,抽象的语言,-,高度复杂，抽象的思维，卓越的智能和复杂的思维。,Bickerton,：人类只有了解了语言，才能了解自身。,通过研究语言来更好地认识我们自己和我们的行为。,区分流派与分支,Distinction

large the formal grammars,with their roots in logic and philosophy)and those that are primarily paradigmatic(by and large the functional ones,with their roots in rhetoric,2.,宏观区分流派,and ethnography).The former interpret a language a list of structures,among which,regular relationships may be established(hence the introduction of transformation);they tend to emphasize universal
