Abstract :
Cognitive linguistics considers grammatical constructions based on mental construction and focuses on meaning and believes: meaning is not independent of human cognition and perception and language coding includes factors such as selection, perspective, focus, framing, categorization methods. , And is part of this, and the linguistic structure is a direct reflection of cognition, that is, a particular linguistic expression depends on a particular way of conceptualizing a particular situation; This view is very similar to Abdul Qahir's theory of order, which says: The meaning of speech is achieved when it is poured into regular words according to the special order and composition that have regular and orderly meanings in the human soul and heart. Attention to the cognitive role of language, the importance of meaning, following syntactic structures from the structure of mental meaning, and the factors that cognitive linguists consider effective in encoding language are evident in Abdul Qahir. Considering the importance of the cognitive perspective in contemporary linguistics and due to the comprehensiveness and accuracy of Abdul Qahir's linguistic views, which has become extremely important in scientific circles, in this article we compared and analyzed the views of cognitive linguists with Abdul Qahir's linguistic views and concluded that both Language is considered as one of the cognitive powers that has empirical, psychological and social role. And grammar follows meaning and concept, and the meaning of language is influenced by the point of view, position and individual knowledge and its objective application.
