Linguistic competence: Theory and empiry

Abstract: Christian Lehmann University of Erfurt AbstractLanguage competence has sometimes been used as an idealized notion which somehow embodies the collective knowledge of a speech community in the person of an ideal speaker-hearer. However, the basic notion is the competence of an individual in a language. If the language in question is not the native language, it is taken for granted that the person may be proficient in the language to some degree. The standard is then generally set by native competence. However, n… Show more

“…Nevertheless, it is striking that compositional information can be completely disregarded, especially in the canonical No X is too Y to Z configuration, and that the non-compositional mode of processing is sophisticated enough to be sensitive to manipulations of the interpretation world. The consistent contribution of world knowledge to meaning implies that the use of this particular source of information can be regarded as a kind of linguistic competence that does not necessarily depend on compositional interpretation (Coseriu, 1985;Fortuin, 2014;Lehmann, 2007).…”

So linguistic knowledge is reflection on certain ability.…”
