摘　　要：比克顿继承乔姆斯基关于普遍语法和语言官能的观点,认为人类机体中存在关于语言产生的基因成分,人脑具备强大的重组能力和最简的运作机制,并且他也重视自然条件及文化因素对原始语言发展的作用,强调外部环境对内部结构的影响。同时,比克顿否定乔姆斯基唯递归性假说的形式主义思想,提出“附加”“封闭”和“短语与从句算法”构成整个普遍语法。比克顿与乔姆斯基分歧的原因在于二者的研究背景、研究路径和哲学基础不同。Bickerton inherits Chomsky’s ideas like Universal Grammar and the Faculty of Language. He agrees that there exists genetic component for language, and that human brains are capable of self-reorganizing or operating most economically. Furthermore, Bickerton also attaches great importance to natural selection in the process of forming protolanguage. At the same time, Bickerton denies Chomsky’s recursion, which he deems is formalism. He holds that "attach","close" and "the phrase and clause algorithms" form the totality of the Universal Grammar. The causes of those discrepancies can be attributed to their different research backgrounds, research methods and philosophical grounds.
