§4人类语言的甄别性特征是什么?
1)Arbitrariness
Itmeans that there isnologicalconnectionbetweenmeaningsandsounds.Forinstance,thereisnonecessaryrelationshipbetween theworddogandtheanimalitrefersto.Thefactthat differentsoundsareusedtorefertothesameobjectindifferentlanguages
andthatthesamesoundmaybeusedtorefertodifferent objectsisanothergoodexample.Althoughlanguageisarbitrarybynature,itisnotentirelyarbitrary.Somewords,suchasthewordscreatedinthe imitation ofsounds bysoundsaremotivatedinacertaindegree.The arbitrary nature of languagemakesitpossibleforlanguagetohaveanunlimitedsourceofexpressions.
2)Productivity
Languageisproductiveorcreativeinthatitmakespossibletheconstructionandinterpretation ofaninfinitely largenumberofsentences,including those that they
havenever saidorheard before.
3)Duality
Itmeansthatlanguageisasystem,whichconsistsoftwosetsofstructure,ortwolevels,oneofsoundsatthelowerlevelandtheotherof meanings atthehigherlevel.Atthelowerorthebasiclevel,thereisthestructureofindividualandmeaninglesssounds,whichcanbe grouped intomeaningfulunitsatthehigher level.
This duality of structure ordouble articulation oflanguageenablesitsuserstotalkaboutanythingwithintheirknowledge.
4)Displacement
Itmeansthatlanguage canbeusedto talkaboutwhathappenedinthepast,what is happeningnow,or whatwill happeninthefuture.Language can also beused totalk aboutourrealwordexperiences or the experiencesinourimaginaryworld.Inotherwords,languagecanbeusedtorefertocontextsremovedfrom theimmediatesituationsofthespeaker.
5)Culturaltransmission
While we are born withthe abilitytoacquirelanguage,thedetails of any
language are not geneticallytransmitted,butinsteadhavetobetaughtandlearnedanew.

user’sknowledge oftherulesofhislanguage.Thisinternalizedsetofrulesenablesthelanguageusertoproduceandunderstandaninfinitelylargenumberof sentencesand recognize sentences that are ungrammaticalandambiguous.
Accordingto Chomsky,performance is the actualrealizationofthisknowledgeinlinguisticcommunication.Althoughthespeaker'sknowledge of hismother tongueisperfect,hisperformancesmayhavemistakesbecauseofsocialandpsychologicalfactorssuch asstress,embarrassment,etc..Chomskybelievesthatwhat linguistsshould study
is the competence,which is systematic,nottheperformance,whichistoohaphazard.
