Research Abstract

We have proposed two modes of cognition (I-mode and D-mode) and have shown that the cognitive transition from I-mode to D-mode is critical to the evolution of language. The meta-cognitive function of D-mode makes a conceptual base for the emergence of syntactic recursion which is identified as the only uniquely human component of the faculty of language, whereas displacement itself is a decisive factor for the grammaticalization of categories at layer V of the 6-layer scenario of language evolution.
