摘　　要：该文拟以乔姆斯基的生成语言学理论为着眼点,全面刻画语言研究的科学性质、科学地位,以及其语言观诞生背后的思想根源和哲学基础。学语言与语言学是两码事,语言学是经验科学中的自然科学,无论在研究方法上还是理论假设上都符合科学研究精神,以客观事实说话,摒弃主观臆断。语言也不仅是交际的手段,还是思维的工具。乔姆斯基语言观是对笛卡尔唯理主义思想的继承、批判与扬弃,认为人类的心智存在着特定的语言认知系统,语言具有人类的生物遗传属性。与笛卡尔的“身心二元论”不同,心智最终是大脑,人的语言知识或语言机能属于自然世界,因此理性主义与自然主义有机契合,超越了传统的理性主义。This paper focuses on Chomsky's theory of generative grammar in an attempt to explore the scientific property as well as the philosophical basis of linguistic study.Learning language isn't the same thing as linguistics,the latter is a natural science,a branch of empirical science.Its assumptions and methods must be honest and realistic without subjective conjecture.Therefore language is not only a tool for communication,but also a tool for thinking.Chomsky takes language as biological genetic property of human on the basis of Cartesian materialist thought.Unlike Descartes'"mind-body dualism",the mind is ultimately the brain,and the knowledge of language or faculty of language is part of this natural world.Considering this,Chomskian assumptions is beyond traditional rationalism since it integrates rationalism and naturalism in linguistic study.
