, Chapter 1 – Science, Language, and the Science of
Language
(p. 23 – 35)
Isaac Asimov wrote the essay ‘’The Relativity of Wrong’’. In this he countered
that what matters isn’t the knowing whether an idea is right or wrong, but having
a sense of which ideas might be more wrong than others.
1.1 What Do Scientists Know about Language? (p. 27)
In studying the language sciences, it’s especially useful to approach the field with
the ‘’how do you know’’ mindset rather than one that asks which theory is right.
Box 1.2
Psycholinguistics is a field that uses experimental methods to study the
psychological machinery that drives language learning, language comprehension,
and language production. To construct theories that stand a decent chance of
being right, we need to pay attention to a variety of angles:
- Theoretical linguists: provide detailed descriptions and analyses of the
structure of language. They pay attention to the patterns found in
language.
- Computational linguists: write and implement computer programs to
explore the data structure of human language or to stimulate how humans
might learn and use language.
- Neurolinguists and cognitive neuroscientists: study the brain and how this
complex organ carries out the mental operations that are required for
learning or using language.
- Biolinguists: look deeply into our biological makeup to understand why our
species seems to be the only one to use language to communicate.
- Language typologists: are like naturalists, collecting data samples from
many different modern languages, and historical linguists are like
archeologists, reconstructing extinct ancestors and establishing the
connections and relationships among existing languages.
