Abstract

The paper discusses the ‘psychological reality’ of human languaging. Basing on the dialogical and distributed arguments, the point of departure is in observations of the actualities of languaging in different modalities and environments. Arguing against the psychological reality of ‘mental grammars’ as storages of internal rules and representations, the concept of decontextual and amodal language knowledge is replaced by a know-how that is associated both with the modality and indexicality of usages. Further, instead of a ‘grammar’, the reservoir of agentive knowledge is approached as a personal repertoire that is discussed, using the concept of timescales, as an assemblage that develops during the agent's personal trajectory, but that at the same time is made possible by developments over cultural-historical and evolutionary timescales. The discussion is associated particularly with the field of applied linguistics, and aims at offering new theoretical arguments for the research on language learning and teaching.

从 "心理语言学 "到分布式意义生成研究:重温心理现实
本文讨论了人类语言的 "心理现实"。本文以对话式和分布式论点为基础,以观察不同模式和环境下的语言实际情况为出发点。我们反对将 "心理语法 "作为内部规则和表征的储存库的心理现实,而将非语境和非模式语言知识的概念替换为与使用的模式和索引性相关的诀窍。此外,代理知识库不再是一种 "语法",而是一种个人剧目,使用时间尺度的概念,将其讨论为在代理的个人轨迹中发展起来的一种组合,但同时也是通过文化历史和进化时间尺度的发展而成为可能的。讨论尤其与应用语言学领域相关,旨在为语言学习和教学研究提供新的理论依据。

期刊介绍: Language Sciences is a forum for debate, conducted so as to be of interest to the widest possible audience, on conceptual and theoretical issues in the various branches of general linguistics. The journal is also concerned with bringing to linguists attention current thinking about language within disciplines other than linguistics itself; relevant contributions from anthropologists, philosophers, psychologists and sociologists, among others, will be warmly received. In addition, the Editor is particularly keen to encourage the submission of essays on topics in the history and philosophy of language studies, and review articles discussing the import of significant recent works on language and linguistics.
