Abstract

The discussion about linguistic universals, initiated over 50 years ago by J. Greenberg, remains a topic of significant interest today. While there’s an ongoing debate on the universality of linguistic forms - with some supporting the notion and others dismissing it as baseless—the idea of a unifying linguistic essence stands firm. The article aims to explore the linguacultural values of language, particularly how they enable the reconstruction of ideas and stereotypes within specific segments of a language system. The research found that universal language characteristics serve as a rich source of information for those studying linguacultural aspects. These traits offer nationally determined interpretations of words, drawing from associations rooted in either tangible or cultural codes. When delving into cultural codes present within every culture, the study discerned the presence of basic and universal codes. The existence of these codes provides insights into the formation of stereotypes, which encapsulate the experiences and knowledge intrinsic to the bearers of a culture. Linguistic universals, underpinned by universal grammar and semantic foundations, occupy a central position in linguacultural examinations, especially when reconstructing cultural ideas and stereotypes. Basic and universal cultural codes inherent in each culture facilitate the creation of linguistic worldviews.

语言普遍性的语言文化和认知特殊性
格林伯格(J. Greenberg)在 50 多年前发起的关于语言普遍性的讨论至今仍是一个备受关注的话题。尽管关于语言形式的普遍性的争论仍在继续--有些人支持这一观点,有些人则认为它毫无根据--但统一语言本质的观点却岿然不动。这篇文章旨在探讨语言的语言文化价值,特别是这些价值如何在语言系统的特定部分重构思想和定型观念。研究发现,通用语言特点是研究语言文化方面的丰富信息来源。这些特征提供了由国家决定的对词语的解释,从植根于有形或文化代码的联想中汲取营养。在深入研究每种文化中的文化代码时,研究发现了基本代码和通用代码的存在。这些代码的存在为刻板印象的形成提供了启示,刻板印象概括了一种文化的传承者所固有的经验和知识。由通用语法和语义基础支撑的语言普遍性在语言文化研究中,尤其是在重建文化观念和定型观念时占据着核心地位。每种文化中固有的基本和普遍的文化准则有助于创建语言世界观。

期刊介绍: Journal of Psycholinguistic Research publishes carefully selected papers from the several disciplines engaged in psycholinguistic research, providing a single, recognized medium for communications among linguists, psychologists, biologists, sociologists, and others. The journal covers a broad range of approaches to the study of the communicative process, including: the social and anthropological bases of communication; development of speech and language; semantics (problems in linguistic meaning); and biological foundations. Papers dealing with the psychopathology of language and cognition, and the neuropsychology of language and cognition, are also included.
