摘要
任意性原则的缺陷来自于索绪尔错误的语言哲学观———整体论语言观并认为语言符号既是任意性更是有理剧的。语言符号的任意性是指语言符号和它所代表的客观事物之间没有本质的必然的联系,它的理据性则是针对人在选择语言符号时的理性思维而言的。
The limitation of Saussure's idea that the linguistic sign is arbitrary lies in his philosophic view of language--holistic view of laguage. The paper argues that linguistic sign is arbitrary as well as motivated. The arbitrariness means there is no intrinsic connection between signifier and signified, while motivation refers to human's reasonable thinking in selecting linguistic signs to express meaning.
