当代语言哲学家们日益关注语言与价值的关系,而类似命题态度这样的意向和我们语言中话语的其他属性则在价值中得到了模糊或清晰的表达。那么,语言是如何与价值相关的?我们如今为什么要关心这种关系?研究表明,语言自身的系统、规则以及语言之外的民族、政治、社会制度等等的作用,使得语言具有了价值内容,也使得语言使用者获得了语言表达式的价值承诺。语言具有意义决定了与社会中的价值相关的行为方式。当我们考虑到语言中的价值,我们就是要寻求我们的言语行为对语言意义的最终目的。
Contemporary linguistic philosophers have been increasingly attending the relation between language and value;and such intention of proposition attitude and other properties in the discourse of our language have attained vague or clear expression in value.Then the questions arise:how is language associated with value?And why should we be concerned with such relation today?My research suggests that the linguistic system of its own,the regulations and the roles of nationality,politics,social institution and others outside language have characterized language with value content and endowed language users with the value promise of linguistic expression.In other words,language conceives the behavioural ways relating to values in society that are determined by meaning.Therefore,when we consider the values in language,we are bound to seeking the ultimate goal of linguistic meaning from our speech behaviour.
