摘　　要：本文具体讨论英语语法的哲学意蕴。为此,要确定所讨论的英语语法应当是有别于教学语法的各种理论语法。就理论语法的各种学派来说,又可区分规定语法和描写语法。前者发展历史长,哲学意蕴清楚,传承了古希腊的哲学思想、罗马帝国时期的斯多葛学派、欧洲中世纪的思辨哲学和思辨语法。描写语法在20世纪初崛起,强调人类学、社会学的文化传统。就系统功能语言学而言,其对立统一理论反映了辩证唯物主义的哲学观。最后,近年来兴起的描写性形而上学值得注意。The paper focuses on the philosophical implication of English grammar. It should first be made clear that we are talking about theoretical grammar which is different from pedagogical grammar. As for the theoretical grammr,we can make a further distinction between prescriptive grammar and descriptive grammar. The former is marked by its long history and clear philosophical implication,such as ancient Greek philosophical thoughts,the Stoic school in the period of Roman Empire,and the speculative philosophy and speculative grammar. The latter saw its rise in the 20 century, stressing the tradition of anthropology and sociology. However,the philosophical view of dialectical materialism can be found in systemic-functional grammar. Finally, we should also keep an eye on the rise of descriptive metaphysics.
