0402班集体答题
I.译文(已批改):
语言贯穿我们的全部的生活,予我们的思维以言辞,予我们理念以话音,予我们的感受以表述。
它是一种人类所拥有的丰富而多样的能力–想用就用,无须思索,天下儿童,自能习得。
语言学家知其固然复杂,却可描述。
语言学是研究语言的本质、结构和变化的科学,分为语音学,音位学,形态学,句法学,语义学和语用学.

翻译(已批阅):
费迪南·德·索绪尔是20世纪之交伟大的瑞士语言学家。
从1881到1891他在巴黎的法国高等学院任教。
随后在日内瓦大学任印欧语言学和梵语教授(1901-1913)。
1907到1913任生成语言学教授。
作为一名教师,他影响巨大,但因为他不断研究以求精益求精,所以他的思想观点在他生前并未发表。
他死后三年,他的两名学生巴利和薛施埃把在他课上摘录的笔记编汇成书出版,题目为《生成语言学课程》。
该书一出版就成为了当时最具影响力的语言学著作。
索绪尔建立了语言结构研究的体系,强调语言符号与其所表示的意义之间的随意关系。
他还主张语言应该被认为是一种社会现象,一种可以从历时和共时两方面来认识的结构体系,并且坚持认为,这两种研究方法显著不同,在方法论上相互排斥。
他还起用了两个现已获得广泛运用的术语——“parole”,即每个人所说的言话,和“langue”,即存在于特定社会特定时期的系统化结构化的语言。
索绪尔提倡赋予“语言”更多的重要性而不是“言语”,并且建议当时的语言学家多搞共识研究,而非历史研究。
他在理论上和方法论上的创新思维得到广泛的认同。
人们称他为现代语言学之父。
