The Opposition and Unity of Saussure Views on Linguistic Signs

Ferdinand de Saussure

He made a distinction between:
Langue and parole

The signifier and the signified

The syntagmatic and the associative relationships

Synchronic and diachronic linguistics

He was the founder of structural linguistics
Natures of a Linguistic Sign

A linguistic sign is both invariable and variable

The mixture and communication of language users of all ages ensure the coherence of language inheritance

Linguistic signs have two important natures: arbitrariness and linearity

The arbitrariness means that the combination of a signifier and a signified is arbitrary

Linearity, which means when linguistic signs are used, they are strung in a linear way

Language as a Value System

The meaning of a word arises from the differences between the values of linguistic signs, or specifically, the relationship between linguistic values.

The value of linguistic signs in terms of conceptual aspect, material aspect and the sign as a whole

In a given language, all the words which express neighboring ideas help define one another’s meaning

The language system is a value system which combines sounds and concepts.

Denies that language is a nomenclature that labels different things differently

Linguistic signs do not associate things and names, but concepts and sound images

Signifier and the signified indicates the duality and composability of a linguistic sign
