Orbital Diagram Of Elements

the noun phrase.



phrase definition.


The phrase is the word or group of them that as a maximum expansion of a core, has a single meaning but may be incomplete in a sentence or proposition. The words - or the word, if the kernel is its only member, are the smallest units from the syntactic point of view. The kernel maintains a list of reaction with its expansions and, if applicable, a statement added to consistency.


noun Definition.

In this sense, the noun phrase (hereafter SN) has at its core a conception of reality itself, which categorically means a noun, a pronoun "I know", or some element Metabasis who has suffered, or to Sutanto categorial transposition: a nominalized infinitive "is a duty to respect others," a noun with the adjective, article, or even if the adjective is not determined "The widow, married and unmarried for me are all pears on the tree of love, "there appear normatively adjectives more often than noun, becoming in substantive language: The old watch the ducks in the park. Nominal kernel extensions agree in gender and number with the same-red cars. Of the various types of adjacent and determinants discussed below.


substantive definition.


categorial and semantic definition.

In addition to their formal noun can be defined from categorial point of view as that which conceives things or events themselves, unlike the adjective, conceived as the powers of another, or the verb, which assumes reality as a way of being or becoming. Have lexical meaning, as Tesniere, hence it is a word constituent, can form the nucleus, regulate other elements and stand alone, ie can be autonomous. Semantically

designed these substances themselves can be concrete if it is perceived by the senses and abstract if they are captured by the intellect. Hence, specific names are common in the first place if not unique-referentially table. Those of the generators, which are countable, a shoe-individual, and collective, if they mean a plurality, the canopy-and the subject, countless bread, water ... so if you receive plural is a stylistic nuance: the waters were opened. The individual themselves, for their part, point to a reference individuality-so do not usually admit that the updated article, except in standard facts: Japan, or in slang: the Pepe, whether anthroponyms if they are referring to people or characters "Tintin and place names if they refer to spatial locations:" Tangier.

abstract names are expected phenomenon-the-quality-of-kindness and collective numerals, if they indicate a precise number, a quintet, or undefined if not denote a precisely-a hodgepodge. Definition

morphological . Morphologically

consists of a lexeme, which provides the lexical meaning a word and two constituent morphemes: the gender and number, and three doctors, or optional: suffixes derogatory, augmentative and diminutive, which can take values \u200b\u200bstylistic-bald, for one who has short hair, "and prefixes: pre-election.

Gender in English is limited to male and female morphemes. As the first unmarked element can be operated by women: The judges [including the judges] are the heart of the Judiciary. The male is marked by the allomorphs oy ø, while the female is marked with a. There

invariable nouns whose gender he is given by the ratio of concordance phrase has with its determinants, "he / Sentinel-or, in the case of epicene, adding an adjacent noun-female wild boar. Gender is not always the benchmark, the cook / chef, is also the unmotivated and therefore due to grammatical issues, the ambulance, the dolphin ,...-. And even the reference difference may be reflected in different lexemes in nouns heteronyms the horse / mare. Gender variations may involve diatopía or diafasía: the heat, the sea ... Gender also can lead to semantic oppositions because of homonymy, the garden / orchard, "or opposition of various kinds, such as Agent - instrument:" the sword / Sword. Other lexemes are amplified as a mark of feminine acting, potato / Papis, ...

In terms of numbers, English has morpheme ø singular and plural allomorphs-s and-es. Allomorph of the plural-es is added when the word ends in a consonant or vowel-marked trucks, usually if-t o-ú: Alphonsine, Hindu, ... The current rule is to accept the allomorph-s for the other vocal tonic-babies, sofas, moors, and for cards ,...-, unstressed-cars. Foreign words are not adapted its plural in-s if they end in a consonant: We have taken all possible handicaps.

The singular is unmarked item, for it can work for the plural: The German [by the Germans] are a lover of nature. Even some names may indicate plurality of normative support so that a solecism in numerical agreement: The crowd of protesters demanded urgent improvements.

Moreover substantive result is invariable: they always tamtum-complexion singularity or plurality-tantum-the shattered, "they should not be confused with those who are formally unchanged but have the morpheme marking the determinants: the hipótesis.Por other hand, such as gender, the numerical variation may indicate an intention stylistic: I'm fed up of travel by sea.



Functional definition. Functionally

may be, within the sentence:

• Direct object: I bought a bike.
• indirect object: I bought a motorcycle. • Add circumstantial
: I will come on Thursday.
• Subject: John came soon.
• Apposition: John, Burgos, was with me yesterday.
• Vocative: I saw the car again, John!
• Attribute: John is the Burgos.
• Add the adjective: The dress was red sienna. Adjacent


: the adjective.

Categorical definition.

The adjective is a way of categorizing reality as being in another and so graduate or not: thus expresses a quality attached to another element: The white car / whitest. Definition

morphological .

morphology was a name therefore has the same noun constituent morphemes. So much so that, as we saw, may appear noun. For some authors that it is accompanied by no means categorically transposing a noun: it would adjective pronoun, it would not work then as an article: The good thing is that one has begun.

Number
Morphemes are the same as the noun. However it differs in its classification in terms of gender: they are invariably in-a: sentinel-i and-u: Ceuta, Hindu, and many of the finishes in a consonant: capable, hard, cruel, terrible. .. Moreover we have the ending in-or the male and for female-to-champion / champion, "and those which are masculine allomorph of one who is not or, staying for female-to: Cordoba / Cordoba .

However, the morpheme is proprietary grading of the adjective: the morpheme morphologically and syntactically mark the extent to which attributes the quality expressed by the adjective.

The positive rating attributes a neutral level, indicating that the quality is simply another element: The incredible story of Mant.

The absolute superlative expresses the possession of an attribute of something or someone in isolation: it is expressed analytically, ie syntactic means John is very dark brown fabric. Synthetically can also be expressed by suffixes cults: balnquísimo, miserable ,...; colloquial prefixes: supertonta, requetemalo ... or inheritance from Latin: optimism, pessimism, maximum and minimum. The relative superlative expresses this quality but in relation to another element that integrates: Man strongest in the world.

The comparative degree gives an idea of \u200b\u200bcomparison of qualities between two elements. Also expressed analytically by expressing inferiority-less + adjective + to-, equal-as + adjective + as, or superior-most + adjective + that. The superiority still survive the coming directly from Latin forms better, worse, major and minor.


Functional definition.

The adjective has two basic functions: direct attribution to a noun and the predicate when it is attributed to a sermon by conferring with semicopulativos linking verbs or, in the case of helping a semipredicativo functions as switch the subject and the verb: The stevedores came tired.

The direct attribution is not link-gray hat and takes a number of shades depending on their position: prefixing the noun usually indicates subjectivity and explanatory value of a quality inherent in the noun-white snow, but if such quality is not logically the meaning of the noun we will have a weighted hue: good backs, ...


Sometimes preposed adjectives always appear normatively: the mere news. Adjectives express postponed usually logically objective quality not included in the noun-foot alabaster, "but not always well: It is an excellent wine. Even in this position is also normatively entrenched adjectives: agricultural machinery. Finally we must note that many adjectives, for reasons of policy,
change meaning depending on their position, my old home, in the sense of my previous house, and my old house, and aging. Adjacent


: the addition to the name, apposition, relative clauses and adverb.

The name complement is a prepositional phrase specifying the meaning of the noun. Many of these supplements have specialized mean-field source or sodium borate, cheese Burgos ,...-, purpose-paper towels-or circumstance-back in sugar cane.

The apposition is a noun phrase attached to the nucleus of a noun phrase that explains its meaning or is restricted: it is called direct apposition if linked without pause, it has the specification: the Mount Itoiz werewolf ... If the union is separated by pauses, graphically marked by commas, we face a deposition indirect explanatory value: Federico, Giulio's brother, ruled for two years, Madrid, capital of Spain.

The relative clauses have apposition same values \u200b\u200bas if they are separated by pauses, so the explanation, coupled with pauses, up to the entire noun they accompany, while those specified, together with pauses not selected a part of all: The applicants who previously have given the E-111, may receive their assignment is a case of explanatory becomes clear whether commas are subtracted: Applicants who have previously given the E-111 may receive its allocation. Especially

colloquial language supports the adverbs adjacent qualifier value: A kiss and deserves a gift. The

pronouns, adjectives, nouns and pronouns.


Definition.

are elements that themselves have no meaning and function, which is given them by the noun phrase it replaces proformas in the discourse as noun: John is Gijón, Oviedo Rafael is, to the one you like Andorra, they prefer the Pyrenees. You can replace these elements in the speech because deictically points, ie extra-linguistic "Give me that, please, or because it appears they announced by cataphoric" I'll tell you now: donkey! "- Referring to it if it appeared by anaphora: I like the theater, I prefer to dance, or, if phoric and replaced without having appeared just before or announce it: The prize has now come.

When the pronoun is the core function of a noun phrase with a pronoun are substantive, but if you change the substantive meaning of a pronoun will act as an adjective, or determining next to the item, then we'll see.


personal pronouns.

nouns and pronouns are always possess, by inheritance from the Latin, specific forms for different functions: they are unstressed ones that work as direct object, indirect and attribute-in the case of lo- which require a verb that rely on accentual: me, te, se, le, les, os, us, the, the, the and.

contrast, tonics are the main focus of his group, and act as subject or as a term of a preposition: I, you, he, she, you, us, us, you, you, them, them, you, Me, you, yes, and diachronic reasons, when the latter three are combined to pass with me, you and him.

relative pronouns.
gradually phased
a nominal element that precedes it, ie, its history, even if it is omitted, in the prayers of TWD to silent history: The one who wins, say by relating it to the subordinate clause, so also has the function of sentence-link. The relative pronouns are who, who, who-these two for person-which, what, how, how much, how many, how many, of which, whose, which and whose "these four always work as possessive pronouns, adjectives value: Footballers whose teams are great live well.

Where, how and when they can operate as a relative. Identified because they are paraphrased by the + article + that: The house where I was born is pretty = The house where I was born pretty.

are questioned when they point to an unknown element: do not know what made. They can take a weighted value exclamatory sentences, going to exclaim: How cute! They differ orthographically into this application by the diacritical tilde.


possessive pronouns. Notes

possession-my car, or close relationship, my boyfriend, of the possessor to the possessed. Work, changing its shape as pronouns and adjectives and nouns pronouns "My ice cream is mine. Generally not accompanied by a determinate: if worn, the building takes stylistic nuances, never forget my homeland, "with an indefinite adjective is always delayed, Seeking my papers. The preposed are my, your, their, our-a your-a, with plurals, the delayed and which function as nouns pronouns agree in the form of mine-a yours-a, his-a, we-a, you-a, with their plurals. You will not need to note the third person has a unique way to a holder and several. Demonstrative pronouns

.

updated functionality-so does not support the article as updater, which would be superfluous, and point to the noun deictically determining or replaced in a gradual way in nearness, highest to lowest are: this, this and that, with their female, neutral and plural. Such as demonstration can take values: This is my situation, and I have not that much.

deictic This character may refer to different space-time coordinates and make stylistic values: The day you give me a kiss, that day, I'll marry you, That brat not speak to me, Blessed is he who ...

quantitative pronouns: indefinite and numerals.

The vaguely indefinite quantifies the noun it replaces or accompanies because they do so intentionally, I know some stories about you-or not-I saw something, but do not know why, "whoever, something, anything, other, much rather, many, none, nada, ... are some of them.
cardinal numerals, however, numerically specify the noun referred to in units, tens, hundreds, analytical mode and 11 to 19 21 to 29 and in the hundreds, and forming phrases: three hundred thirty-five.

ordinal numerals, quantify what precise numerical position and occupies a sustantantivo and fiftieth days of modern art. In the ordinal numerals over a hundred the norm is blurring, taking his place cardinal Three hundred anniversary of his death. And one each

Both are dual as a duality, and this point has value distributive "They came with individual escorts, each with his own. On the other hand, the numerals can point multiplication using multiples double, triple, quadruple, quintuple and sextuple, and partition by the partitive, which form part syntagmatically with ordinal +, and from ten with the suffix-th, with its relevant feminine and plural: Me correspond to two twelfths.



Article.

updater has substantial value that comes without that add value, such as deictic demonstratives, or possession, as the possessive. As can not be autonomous, or core, or has value and is dependent lexematic a noun has been included by many authors, among them-as Alarcos morpheme establishing, updating, the noun. Its allomorphs would be the, the and, and even if we accept it as an article and not as a pronoun, as we saw.

Updater This value represents a substantive knowledge of partners and enhancement of its existence, isolating and highlighting it in a sort of neutral deixis. For this demonstration can take values \u200b\u200b"Those who are on there are my friends," possessive "I wash my hands, or Ponderosa - How well did the friend! -. Therefore, their absence will make indeterminacy, ignorance ,...: saw black men go, this morning helicopters have gone home.

verbal and nonverbal communication and



1 .- The concept of communication.

Basically, that there is effective communication must necessarily be given the following factors: an issuer must deliver a message through a channel in the form of a signal or sign, a receiver can receive, decode and interpret. This requires that both share the same code that encrypts the message and forward it to a particular referent. To help you get a feedback loop, or feedback, the receiver must be capable of assuming the functions of transmitter and at the same time, the previous issuer may pass receiver. Of communication thus implies an active player against another person, for while the transmitter emits, the receiver decodes and is, in turn emitting potential.

For Jakobson, each factor corresponds to a function, depending on the communicative intentions of the issuer:

 Expressive emphasizes the interiority of the issuer: I'm glad. 
conative: communication focuses on the receiver, waiting for a change of attitude in this: Come! 
Reference: the statement merely to focus the reference: It's two o'clock. 
Fatica: try to check the feasibility of the canal and on the evidence onomatopoeia sound a concert. 
Poetics: the language is to draw attention to himself: Three Trapped Tigers ate in a wheat field. 
metalinguistic: The language focuses on the code itself: "I" is a personal pronoun.

Both members must share part of their reference system: to communicate something about what the recipient does not have any information implies that its interpretation is unsatisfactory. According to information theory, an optimal system of signs is one that manages to convey the maximum information with minimum signical units. Also, if any of the factors that hinder communication is called noise, while all those resources to remedy the noise is known as redundancy, improved communication system will be the least likely to have noise and that more resources have to lead the message.

The study of communication has been studied by the semiology and semiotics. Semiology Saussure defined as the science that studies the life of signs within social life, making it dependent on psychology and being its most important branch of linguistics. Peirce, for his part, conceived of semiotics from a more logical approach to sociology. Now merge the two disciplines often over and actually become synonymous since the time when both have a common goal: the study and classification of communication systems and its core units: the signs.

A sign is any perceptible substance of great significance. According to Reznikov, the sign functions as a vehicle for meaning, as a medium for information regarding a particular object, the relationship between it and its sign can be natural or arbitrary. The signs are used to receive, hold, process and relay information, functioning as mediating between man and reality, to the point that it becomes an instrument capable of creating a culture. Umberto Eco comes to sign, in fact, every culture has to study as a phenomenon of communication so that semiology is the science that studies all cultural processes as processes of communication.



Thus, the Italian semiotician has established a taxonomy of different semiologies not closed: the animal, or zoosemiótica deals with communication between animals, the olfactory semiology between natural signs as indexes - fresh smell - and codes artificial perfumes, for example, the touch is a communication system widely used among humans: the kiss, hug taste ,...; semiology was thoroughly studied by the structuralist Lévi - Strauss in primitive communities, especially based on the type antinomies sweet / sour ,...; semiology of gesture, or kinetics, considering the significant value gestures, movements and rituals of the Buddhist priests or Hindu dance, wink whistle ,...; semiology has been common among primitive peoples and some of them are preserved as in La Gomera, that of formalized languages, such as mathematics, computer programming languages , the propositional logic, ... and of course the linguistic signs. As the author acknowledges, this typology is tentative: semiologies suffer many of the intersections, such as gestures and animal, and other missing: the color or mixed audiovisual systems.



2 .- The classification of signs.

do not have to have a single type system of signs, communication systems are mixed, mixing different signs of nature, as in the performing arts. On the other hand, it should be noted that the communication does not require any intent by the issuer, as Roland Barthes said that man is an animal communication because it can not communicate or fail to decipher.

signs can be classified according to their nature. On one side we have the natural, or indices, and, secondly, the artificial. The artificial language can be divided into - and these in turn, aids and fundamental - not language - divided into signs, symbols and icons -. Natural signs are not created by man, but played by this: well, the fever is an indicator of disease, or smoke, fire.

artificial non-language signs are created by humans. Can be of three types: symbols, icons and signs. The symbols are material objects that represent abstract ideas, work on modeling, allegory or metaphor, and therefore require of a prior agreement to be understood: so is the symbol of nuclear substance, the cross as a symbol of Christianity, or   as \u200b\u200ba symbol of Sagittarius. The icons, however, do not represent abstract ideas, but concrete, with which saved a similarity: a skull and crossed by warm on a poster to a field is an icon danger of death or a doll skirts service door is an icon of the ladies, or as an icon   phone. In this sense, some authors have almost comparable icons and pictograms, as defined them as figurative drawings that express a simple semantic content, as a comic vignettes. For its part, the signals can share the properties of the symbols or icons, but they differ in that they dominated the conative function, is hoping for a change in the attitude of the receiver and the puppets of traffic lights, or   as one-way street sign.

For its part, the artificial linguistic signs are those of human verbal communication. Other semiotic systems lack a structuring and development similar to verbal language. Also, they can not classify the continuum of reality to some degree demonstrated that without the help of sign language would be impossible to differentiate between two objects or concepts in a clear and permanent. Studies on aphasic disorders, or loss of verbal skills, show how the individual lost in parallel the language and intellectual ability.



Martinet has shown that one of the essential human verbal language is its double articulation, ie the fact that a sentence can be divided into phonemes and sounds into larger units: lexemes and morphemes. The morpheme, as their terminology, consists of a phoneme or group of them involving a significant value can be distinguished as larger units, while the phoneme unit minimum of the second joint, the smallest into which a morpheme, behaving distinctive value only, but not significant. 3 .-


nonverbal languages \u200b\u200band their relationship to verbal language .

3.1 .- Difficulties in the study and common features.

Human communication can not be reduced to verbal language, according to Flora Davis in what it captures of a message results in 45% of a verbal system, while 55% comes from body language. However, despite its importance, this type of communication has not received comparable attention to the verbal system. Have been reported some difficulties for a rigorous study be carried out: firstly, there is no scientific tradition until the early 50's when Hall Birdwhistle and structural studies on gestures and space, respectively, on the other hand, it is evident that satisfactory tools have been developed for data collection to the use of the film: the study was based on direct observation of some phenomena, already culturally heterogeneous.

Apart from these difficulties, we can point out a number of characteristics common to all non-verbal language: first, it seems that most of them predominantly expressive function, in this sense is universal expressions of human feelings - pain, joy, ... - But it is also true that a series of gestures whose meaning varies according to cultures and circle the union of the buds of the thumb and forefinger, as a symbol of OK is insulting in Brazil. A fist with the heart and above is an offensive gesture and called digitus impudicus in Rome, while in some Arab cultures reversed gesture from the heart down and outstretched palm, other gestures can mean different intentions: biting the thumb is offensive in Italy, while Spain may indicate thoughtfully.

Moreover, it is also true nonverbal communication that is inevitable: man can not fail to communicate their inner gestures, with his clothing, ... while it can not stop playing around him, whether consciously or not. In this decoding, it also seems that the main channel shown in humans is the optical. This fact is fundamental to man as the way in which a person is perceived also determines one's perception of itself.

Furthermore nonverbal languages \u200b\u200bcan be used independently, serve as redundancy or make noise in verbal communication:

 By replacing, replace verbal communication non-verbal, as when we deny his head. 
repeat redundancy is issued - as when the hand gesture of dismissal for redundancy can be used to broadcast Goodbye - Complement - for example if I issue an order quietly with a look of anger - or simply accentuate it - in the movements that accentuate the striking vocals -.
 But it is also true that it can serve as a noise when it contradicts the verbal communication, so someone who is hurt but the pain gestures verbally insists it is all right. 
nonverbal systems also have a regulatory function of communication, and raise your eyebrows and chin to show that the channel is open, reduce eye contact to pass your turn ...
We can say now that non-verbal language enters as semiotic studies forms an important part of the system of signs used in human communication. It is true that this type of communication associated with man other animate beings, but it is also true that the difference for Rafaelle Simone, this evidence of man's ability to create new communication codes. This skill has been named by the Italian semiotic semiopoiesis unlimited. Such a skill involves, as the author himself, that man has a variety of independent codes, and each They have an expression and a particular content class, this fact makes it possible for codes can interfere with each other simultaneously, enriching human communication. 3.2 .-

gestural communication, or kinetics. Ray L.

Birdwhistell used to systematize the structural model with body movements communicative purpose. The minimum unit of the gesture is the kine, which combined with others can generate Kinema, communicative intent or gestures whose meaning varies depending on the use made of them. Kineme Not all are truly significant in terms of human perception is limited. The point is kinemorfema syntactic as is given by the succession or simultaneity kineme combined. Ekman and Friesen

continued science founded by Birdwhistell and incorporated a taxonomy of kineme:

 Emblems: are verbal substitutes, such as manual gesture Come here, Calla, ... 
Illustrators: They support the verbal language, the examples above are valid here are supported by their utterances. 
Adapters: are the product of a learning process to adapt to certain situations. The adapters I respond to personal needs and body: the management of the spoon ,...; displayed as a result of interpersonal relationship with others: touching, assault ,...; the objectual have to do with some instrumental task: driving, writing, ... 
Mood: express emotional states, especially in the face: facial gestures to communicate them eight primary affective states: happiness, surprise, sadness, fear, anger, disgust, contempt, and interest. 
Regulators: predominates in them phatic function: approval to demonstrate that it is maintaining attention, eye deviation to show disinterest or assignment of speaking time, ... 3.2 .-

proxemics.

This science studies - especially after Hall's research - the structure that makes the human being of its immediate space environment from the body. The individual is limited in its communication by a personal space that limits their land lines, this space is variable depending on the situation: if an elevator has been the subject many people will not feel invaded their space but the distance is minimal, but I reject the fact in an open space you are approached inappropriately. Hall found that the standard distance communication depends on the cultures he said the West react to the invasion because it is a culture that prohibits contact while approaching South American and Arab more. Hall, proxemics for West, has established the following types depending on the distance of the speakers:

 Less than 45 cm: intimate distance. Communication comes into play touch, smell and body heat. 
Between 50 and 75 cm: distance causal - personal. Is the limit of the extension arm and conducive to communicate personal matters. 
Between 1.20 and 2 m: social distance and close to normal conversations.
 Over 3 m: social distance away. For formal talks. The public is given away from 4 m, and is typical of rigid forms of communication such as speech or conferences. 3.3 .-
paralinguistic elements.

describes the paralinguistic vocal features that accompany the words, not always satisfied with the usual scientific intonation curves, or sintonemas. Thus, the voice qualities include control of emphasis, rhythm, ... but also characterizing voice - laughing, crying, sighing, yawning, ... - And what Trager called segregation vowels: ah, mmm, uh, ... All these elements can be related to different syntopy and sinfasías, ie may be associated with a certain style and even with a layer or spatial location.
Knapp
confirms the importance of these elements, disagreement between what is said and how it says is resolved in favor of the latter. For example, to express themselves according to paralinguistic elements of the disagreement will not result in any way convincing.

3.4 .- Other elements.

The variety of factors involved in nonverbal communication is still, as we have seen, sufficiently developed. However, Cook offers the following types: static aspects

: face, complexion, voice, makeup, clothes, hairstyle ... 
Dynamic aspects: orientation, distance, posture and facial gestures, facial expressions, gaze direction and tone, pace and speed of speech.

Meanwhile, Argyle, including nine core areas: physical contact and proximity, orientation, appearance, posture, gestures, head, facial expressions, other body gestures, looks and paralinguistic elements.

Also, they can not classify the continuum of reality to some degree demonstrated that without the help of sign language would be impossible to differentiate between two objects or concepts in a clear and permanent. Studies on aphasic disorders, or loss of verbal skills, show how the individual lost in parallel the language and intellectual ability.



Martinet has shown that one of the characteristics essential to human verbal language is its double articulation, ie the fact that a sentence can be divided into phonemes and sounds into larger units: lexemes and morphemes. The morpheme, as their terminology, consists of a phoneme or group of them involving a significant value can be distinguished as larger units, while the phoneme, the smallest unit of the second joint is the smallest into which a morpheme , behaving distinctive value only, but not significant.


3 .- The differences and relationships of the concepts of language, language and speech.

Saussure defined language as a multifaceted phenomenon, physical, physiological and psychological representing the man's own ability to communicate through a system of vowel and consonant. Such a capability implies the existence of a specific symbolic function and nerve centers of some genetically determined. Humboldt before him and said Gabelentz a line similar to the French, as we shall see in dealing with linguistic competence.


glossematics, meanwhile, introduced a concept the more logical for them all is not exclusively verbal language: that language can be defined as such must be based on an axiomatic abstract semiotics, acronyms and ideal and earlier Any system in language and speech. Human language differs from other semiotic systems that has a system of signs analyzable, advancing the concept of double articulation of Martinet.

For Humboldt, the inner form of language is the abstraction that covers grammar and systematic details of all formal expressions of a language community. Expressed in similar terms Gabelentz and Saussure: for him, sprach is the language of a people, so that is interpersonal in a linguistic community, is a dynamic and synchronous limits depend on the conscience of the speaker and the investigator's discretion . In defining de Saussure, language is the language as a sign system updated by a particular community, hence it is the social and instituted a system of values \u200b\u200bhave been classified as reality is a particular way.

For the Prague School, the language is also social, abstract and homogeneous and is defined as an ideal system of functions. Glossematics adds that language is finite set of relationships established between members of a particular semantic universe: these members are not tied to reference materials as they are already assumed in a given state of meanings. Martinet delves into the latter definition, stating that the human being analyzed their experience through semantic and phonetic units of its particular language. American linguistics has largely equated the concept of language to the grammar and Chomsky argued that language is an unlimited set of sentences of finite length that uses components also finite set of sentences that is associated with a number of meanings social.

In a final level of detail, the speech is to update the language, limited by the use, adequacy and custom, that is the norm. As for Saussure's speech was unsystematic and individual - now this is denied, the individual speaks is the idiolect - the Prague School says speech can also be systematic and unsystematic system - that irregular verbs in - plus the contextual determinants that occur in different formal expressions of a functional unit can act as complementary laws of the system, for example, the correlation of a subject collective singular in English can become a complementary law of our language system in cases like the majority of deputies voted against.



4 .- The concept of linguistic competence.

The concept of competition is rooted in the idea of \u200b\u200bW. energeia Von Humboldt, which was defined as the eternally repeated effort the human spirit to make the articulated sound capable of expressing the thought, and G. sprachvermögen von der Gabelentz, which corresponds to the human faculty of language.

The idea of \u200b\u200bcompetition is a starting point in the linguistic theories of Noam Chomsky. For him, competition is the rule system that is innate and internalized linguistic knowledge of speakers. The competition is universal in its underlying set of rules common to all languages. Thanks to this competition can produce and deliver an infinite number of sentences hitherto unpublished.

A universal jurisdiction accompanies the one hand, the particular jurisdiction, which covers specific rules of each language, and, secondly, the intuition of the speaker, by which it can judge the grammaticality of the sentences presented to them in this regard, it was a match, as did Weinrich, standard intuition linguistics. Eugenio

Coseriu particular competition was equivalent to intuition, in the sense that Chomsky gave it: grammar not only generates expressions, but above all, an insight that allows the speaker to notice the differences oppositions that run a language. Despite some claims, no competence to be understood by Chomsky's idea of \u200b\u200blanguage of Saussure, for while it is systematic and static, it is dynamic and generative. To Badura, language proficiency consists of a repertoire of linguistic signs, a set of semantic rules and an ability to manage and process complex syntactic relationships.

Moreover, Chomsky is a competition and abstract cognitive system of knowledge that develops in early childhood, so that here also is close to Humboldt to his concept of worldview of languages, whereby each language implies a different way of structuring reality and therefore also different worldview.

other hand, Chomsky defines the performance, or action, as the sequence of speech acts under the influence and limitations of extralinguistic variables derived from the use of language. Only through competition is inferred performance of a specific speaker.


5 .- The concept of communicative competence.

To Badura, communicative competence is inferred through linguistic competence. It is defined as the conditions that a particular communicative situation imposes on the performance, ie, it refers to communication skills in a particular context syntopic, and sinstrático sinfásico. Such competition is divided into two components. Of one side is the hermeneutic component - analytic, ie, the ability to properly understand issues made in a particular communicative situation. It is this component that guarantees the processing and preparation of information necessary to develop a satisfactory comunicaión partners of a particular communicative situation. On the other hand would have the tactical component - rhetoric, which seeks to speech acts are imbued with a certain communicative effectiveness.

In a similar vein Hymes defines communicative competence as the ability to master situations of speech, proper use subcodes sociolinguistic different from the standard code of the particular norm.

full Steger Hymes certain way: for him the linguistic competence is defined as social competence, and it is not more than a collection of linguistic rules of conduct that derive from different uses and diaphasic indications diastratic. This set of standards, such as a social convention, direct language planning strategies in the production and understanding expectations. Hartig and Kurz added that social competence is equally dynamic and generative because it changes with the evolution of society while their emissions adequately to new situations.

Habermas, in turn, means that the distinction Chomsky's competence and performance does not take into account that the same general structures of possible situations of communication events are produced by speech acts. These structures serve to place pragmatic expressions generated by competition and are classified as universal pragmatic answer to the system of rules that generate them. Such rules become

phrases, or linguistic units, in statements, or pragmatic units of speech, and a linguistic component has a different social institutions and establishing the true sense of pragmatism. Therefore, a theory communicative competence will study the elementary statements abstracted from the variable component of concrete situations, whose study is left to empirical pragmatics.
