The Algebraic Dimension Of The Language In De Saussure’s Book “Writings In General Linguitics”

Abstract

The Saussurean Algebraic theory‚ that was illustrated in "Writings
in General Linguistics", expresses De Saussure’s desire to make the
linguistics a formal science that relies on scientific strictness. Thus‚ we
can not consider the regularity of linguistic units arbitrary de voided of
a certain logic‚ In that perspective, the algebrical abstraction is the best
way to understand this logic, that’s on one hand. On the other hand, some
aspects of the language attest of its algebrical nature which makes it easier
for the researcher to reach the global bases that gather the languages despite
of their differences, and that’s the ultimate goal of the Linguistics.
