Abstract:
Chomsky is a famous American philosopher and linguist. Chomsky combined language research with mathematical logic and put forward a new linguistic theory and idea, namely transformational generative grammar. Transformational generative grammar is one of the most influential linguistic theories in Western linguistics. Generative grammar is a set of explicit rules for how language is used and for the mind of the person who uses a particular language. It not only injected a fresh force into the field of linguistics, but also had a profound impact on a range of disciplines such as psychology and p

Abstract:
This research aims to study the concept of transformational-generative grammar by Noam Chomsky as well as the foundation of this theory and its actional principles in terms of language acquisition, and try to use the theoretical data in teaching Arabic grammar to non-native Arabic speakers. This can be done by using the analytical descriptive approach. This research is considered important because it deals with a modern linguistic theory which has a scientific value in the modern language lesson and employs it in the field of teaching Arabic grammar.

Generative Grammar
 In this paper, the current version of generative syntax is treated in its various branches. Thereby, we try to explain the most important concepts of Chomsky like defining "competence", "performance", "surface structure" and "deep structure", then theories like "the standard theory" which introduces the syntax and "the X -Bar-Theory" will be discussed. All syntactic structures of all natural languages may be subject to common construction principles, can be set up parallel to previous generalizations of several rules. Furthermore, we will present the elucidation of gen

Abstract:
This article consists of eight parts: introduction, the organization of a Generative Grammar, operation of the system of base rules, deep structure, surface structure and transformational rules, standard theory, extended standard theory, revised extended standard theory, and minimalism. According to Chomsky, the grammar of a language establishes a relationship between sound and meaning, i.e., between phonetic representation and semantic representation. To discover this grammar is the primary goal of linguistics. One of Chomsky's attempts to accomplish this goal is the standard theory grammar,

Abstract:
Noam Chomsky is considered one of the greatest thinkers of the 20th century, and his contribution to Language is evident. The article analyses a possible dialogue between Transformational Generative Grammar, Chomsky's generativism and innatism, and the Knowledge Organization. By establishing epistemological and disciplinary relations with Knowledge Organization, Transformational Generative Grammar highlights the creative aspect of those who are building a given System, which in turn requires the incorporation of documentary languages, thesauriand ontologies, among other elements, for example.

Abstract:
Meaning is one of the problems which seems difficult to deal with to
 such extent that Leonard Bloomfield, who resisted the mentalist approach
 to language, considered it impossible to define meaning till we have a
 scientifically accurate knowledge of everything in the speaker’s world.
 Linguists consider meaning as one of the most complex subjects to deal
 with and some of them are in doubt whether meaning can be studied
 objectively and systematically as phonology and grammar or not. The
 complexity and vagueness of semantics are due to the fact that seman

Subtitling is a discipline within the Audiovisual Translation (AVT) field that requires some special techniques and strategies to channel the information from a multichannel and polisemiotic document into a written text within the screen. It’s a constrained translation that demands an additional effort to convey the content and the form of the source text into the target one. The aim of this paper is to analyse whether the model of the kernel sentences and clausal ranks of the generative-transformational grammar would work as a more systematic method to extract the essential information of the

Abstract:
In 1964, American language educator Kellogg W. Hunt (1912–1998) proposed that the average length of what he called the ‘T-unit’ in a text could quantify its syntactic complexity. Hunt defined a T-unit as a main clause plus any modifiers or subordinated material. His research showed that average T-units increased incrementally with age in texts written by students in grades 4, 8, 12, and adult writers. Capitalizing on a mid-century vogue for linguistics, Hunt interpreted this finding in the idiom of 1960s transformational-generative grammar as indicating that writers gradually learn to impose s

For reasons detailed in this paper, such was the attraction of TG that it became the nearly exclusive source of psychological hypotheses on linguistic processing.

Abstract The chapter begins by outlining the major features of Chomsky and Halle’s transformational generative grammar (TGG) in the 1950s. It discusses whether one can speak of a ‘Chomskyan revolution in the field’. The conclusion is that the vagueness of the concept of ‘scientific revolution’ means that the question will never be answered to everyone’s satisfaction. However it is not hard to pinpoint the two most original features of early TGG: the generative rules’ provision of a structural representation for every sentence generated and for the theory’s rejection of the structuralist phonem

Generative Semantics looked like a natural extension of Transformational Grammar, rooting itself in the semantic subsoil of Deep Structure and aligning closely with Universal Grammar.

Abstract This chapter surveys how linguists in each European country greeted the advent of TGG in the 1960s and 1970s. There is no overarching generalization—the situation differed from country to country. A partial generalization, however, is that the stronger a home-grown structuralist tradition in a country, the less likely the linguists there would be to accept TGG. So the theory made few inroads in Czechoslovakia and Denmark, given the predominance of the Prague School and the Copenhagen School respectively, but did quite well in the Netherlands and Norway, where no indigenous approach wa
