语言哲学视域下语块对二语学习的成效性反思

A Study of Efficiency of Prefabricated Chunks:In Perspective of Philosophy of Language

语块理论之于二语学习的重要性已经从语言的实证角度得到了充分的研究,且语块在二语教学中有"包打天下"之势,但语块的元理论问题却没有得到有效的厘清。因此需要明确3个方面:1.语块对于二语学习的促进作用是有限的。基于乔姆斯基对柏拉图问题解答的视角,证明语块并不能解决语言能力的根本问题。语言能力的根本在于语言的创造性。2.语块对二语学习的成效性关键不在于它符合从模仿到创造这一认知规律,而在于语块的情境性。3.语块对于二语流利性的作用不能过于夸大。维特根斯坦的语言游戏规则说明本族语者和二语专业学习者语言流利的关键在于习得了语言游戏规则。

The value of the prefabricate chunks from the cognitive perspective has been long identified in various research.In this paper,I would address some misunderstanding in theoretical base of prefabricated chunks：1.prefabricated chunks can＇t be overstated.Language by essence is its creativeness and experience accounts for a very limited part of language acquisition.2.I extend the discussion and make a claim：＂language-in-use＂ is the motivation of prefabricated chunks.3.It is an efficient way,especially for beginner to learn second language through prefabricated chunks,but what really matters is the acquisition of the Sprachspiel Rule through maintaining a long time contact with and being exposed to the second language.
