“…Chomsky (2,6) credits human linguistic capacity with the human mental organ, particularly with the FLN, a recently-evolved computational mechanism of recursion due to the speciesspecific biological endowment. Language development thus starts from the initial state-a Universal Grammar (UG), a kind of biological properties initially set in the language faculty and consisting of invariant principle (Merge) and an inventory of universal linguistic features (7,8). Language-specific grammars or I-languages grow up from UG based on primary linguistic data available to language learners.…”

The exploration of pragmatic competence has been endowed with theoretical and empirical significance for half a century, yet a common framework is still under investigation from different perspectives. First, this article conducts a critical review of the investigation of pragmatic competence in communicative ability theory, the function-discourse model, the componential and meaning-driven model, and the relevance-theoretic model. Based on the merits and demerits of these proposals and their relation with Chomsky’s dichotomy of grammatical and pragmatic competences, an integrated model of pragmatic competence (IMPC) is reformulated for thought and communication, focusing on the interactions among various organism-internal submodules under the current minimalist framework and their interactions with outside sociocultural factors. Finally, a comparison is made between the integrated proposal and the theory and models.
