语言功能和可能规范

The function of language and the possible norms

可能规范是指语言在实现其表达和交际功能过程中滋生出来的有别于既成规范、尚未被确认为新规范而又有一定生命力的可疑变异形式。可能规范有现实性、族类自似性、功能的合适性和可接受的创新性。可能规范概念的提出进一步阐明了动态规范理论的原则和方法，与作者此前提出的有关语言规范的一系列概念共同构成了规范语言学的基本概念，可以减少规范性错误的发生。

Abstract Possible norms signify the variants of usage that appear during the course of expression and communication of a language.Though different from the accepted set norms and their “correctness” is still under suspicion,possible norms have shown vitality in daily life.They are realistic and have adaptability in function,acceptability for creativeness and originality and also a tendency of assimilating new elements.The conception of possible norms further expounds the principles and methodology for the dynamic theory of normative linguistics.Possible norms,together with some other conceptions put forward so far by the author,constitute the basic conceptions of normative linguistics and contribute to avoiding errors in normalization.
