摘要
语言学是研究语言及其相关问题的科学。语言学是一个学科群,有70余个学科名目,涉及语言结构、语言功能、语言应用、人类语言学习、机器语言学习、语言与生理、语言与认知等七大研究领域。语言学的学科性质有科学、技术学、艺术学三大分野。语言科学横跨人文科学、社会科学和自然科学,目标是获取语言规律之"真";语言技术学是研究语言技术、发展语言技术的学科,目标是发挥语言学之"善",帮助社会用好语言技术;语言艺术学探讨语言运用之美,发展语言艺术和文字艺术,用"美"来熏陶社会。认识语言学的学科性质意义重大,有利于重新整合语言学的理论体系和学科体系,将研究基点由语言结构向语言运用移动,同时也有利于科学调整高校中的学科设置,有利于促进语言学向相关学科和社会进行学术辐射。
Linguistics deals with language and the various issues concerning language. It is a conglomerate composed of over 70 academic subjects,covering seven major areas: language structure,language function,language application,human language learning, machine language learning, language and physiology, and language and cognition. Linguistics as an academic subject in its very nature can be categorized under three themes: scientific, technological and artistic. It thus transcends humanities, social sciences and natural sciences. The objective of linguistic studies is to understand the rules and regulations of languages. Language technology is about the application and exploitation of language for instrumental purposes with an aim to benefit the human race;the artistic aspects of language and its writing system can be utilized for fostering the aesthetic sense of the public. To understand the nature of linguistics is significant and far reaching as it is conducive in integrating linguistic theories and disciplinary framework of linguistics study, so that it enables us to shift the focus of seeking to answer fundamental questions concerning constructing models of linguistic knowledge to practical application. More generally, this shift also contributes to rectifying discipline categories that are currently adopted in Chinese universities, ultimately leading to furthering linguistic studies. The outcome of linguistic studies should be made applicable in other academic subject and society.
