生物语言学的哲学基础

Philosophical Foundations of Biolinguistics

探索人类语言种系和个体发育等物种特质是生物语言学的基本内容之一。自然科的普遍性暗示了语言的生物普遍性。人类在漫长演化过程中获得的递归合运算是语言的普遍算机制,运算结果分别联系了外部世界和内部世界;演化认识论是语言种系发育的哲学基础语言知识是人类演化的结果,具有天赋性和遗传性。语言生物属性决定了生物语言学应当采方法论自然主义研究路线。

One of the fundamental tasks of biolinguistics is exploring phylogenetic and ontogenetic property of human language.The universalism in nature science indicates biology universality of language.The recursive merge that human being obtain during evolution is the computational mechanism,whose results connect external and internal world respectively.The philosophy foundation of language phylogenetic development is evolutionary epistemology,according to which language knowledge is the result of evolution,hence innate and hereditary.The biology property of language requires the employment of methodological naturalism in the researches of biolinguistics.
