Abstract

The research presented is the attempt made by Dr. Ador Yohanna, focusing on exploring the relationship between Transformational Generative Grammar theory and biolinguistics. Dr. Yohanna introduced a new perspective derived from the linguistic reality, influenced by American linguist Chomsky, and worked on its development. The central idea emphasizes the biological nature of language stored in the human brain, suggesting that it can be anatomically studied with modern scientific advancements. The research underscores that speech originates in the brain before reaching the mouth, as the brain is the true generator of speech from a physiological and scientific perspective. The study delves into various topics across different fields and sciences, attempting to link them to modern linguistic studies with a scientific approach. This connection places language in association with natural sciences such as physics, biology, computer science, mathematics, and biology. The research aims to transition linguistic studies from their classical, old-fashioned nature to the convergence of new linguistic theories, reviving and reinvigorating them. The use of advanced scientific methods allows researchers to analyze and examine languages accurately, unveiling the secrets of their dynamics.
