摘　　要：自"语言机能"这一概念提出以来,受到语言学、生物学、心理学、认知科学等研究领域的广泛关注。Hauser,Chomsky和Fitch^([1])、Pinker和Jackendoff^([2])、Fitch,Hauser和Chomsky^([3])以及Jackendoff和Pinker^([4])围绕语言机能展开了辩驳,涉及语言机能分类、语言进化观等。通过对以上观点的阐释和剖析,发现其争辩焦点在于递归是否为人类和语言所独有。同时,基于近期相关研究,对语言机能加以评述,认为递归也许非人类所独有,但确定不是语言所独有。The concept of language faculty has attracted extensive attention in the field of linguistics,biology,psychology and cognitive science ever since its birth.Arguments on language faculty have been offered by Hauser,Chomsky&Fitch[1],Pinker&Jackendoff[2],Fitch,Hauser&Chomsky[3]as well as Jackendoff&Pinker[4],mainly concerning the categorization of language faculty and the view on language evolution.Through the detailed interpretation and deep-going analysis of the arguments,it can be found that their disputes focus on whether recursion is unique to human and language.Finally,some comments on language faculty are made in close reference to the recent relevant studies,and thus it can be concluded that recursion may not be specific to human beings,but certainly not unique to language.

关 键 词：生物语言学 语言机能 递归 语言进化 争辩
