Level of Text in the Language System

Abstract

In recent years, linguistic studies have increasingly employed a systemic approach to language, analyzing it as an integrated structure composed of interrelated components. This paper examines the hierarchy within language structures, proposing the text level as the highest tier above syntax, morphology, and phonology. Drawing parallels between linguistic structures and knowledge structures, the paper suggests that language inherently mirrors the organization of knowledge. The study concludes that language, particularly at the text level, serves as a means of objectifying and structuring human knowledge, positioning it as a bridge between communicative function and cognitive representation.
