Abstract

Background: Recently, it was proposed by Cai the semantic/syntactic/episodic model of native language to improve the common word/grammar model, supplementing the episodic association of words in clause or sentence by meanings. Purpose: In this article, it is aimed to support the semantic/syntactic/ episodic model with diverse evidences. Method: It was the best and most convincing method by integrative review of literatures in various related fields to support the semantic/syntactic/episodic model. Results and Discussions: It is first adopted such various linguistic progressions as linguistic fluency, word congruency, and so on, to support the semantic/syntactic/episodic model. Then, it is demonstrated as necessary to use the episodic association of word meanings to determine one congruent meaning for some polymeaning words in sentence and paragraph, thus supporting the indispensability of “episodic” as the third linguistic component. Finally, it is divided the memories into the declarative remote memory, procedural memory and declarative immediate/ recent episodic memory, corresponding to the three semantic/syntactic/epi-sodic components of language, respectively, supporting the semantic/syntac-tic/episodic division of language. Conclusion: It is evident that the supports to the simple and intuitive semantic/syntactic/episodic model of language are diverse and could enhance its propagation and applications.
