Abstract
In this chapter, I will continue to discuss the state of the outer language holography. Another rationale of the theory of language holography is: the law of cosmos holography is corroborated in language. The more this corroboration is derived in an all-round fashion, the more astounding we will be on the coincidence between the cosmos and language, and the more clearly we will recognize how far-reaching and insightful the second task of linguistics presented by Saussure is——it thus notes, “To determine the forces that are permanently and universally at work in all languages, and to deduce the general laws to which all specific historical phenomena can be reduced” (cf. Chapter 2, “The overall frame of the theory of language holography”). What on earth is “the forces that are permanently and universally at work in all languages”? The force of the system is its self-organizational movement. Nevertheless, the force of the system is also a system existing in the material world. The whole world, the whole cosmos, is also a huge system. So to speak, the force eternally and universally functioning in all languages is the cosmic system. In this section, I will use the definition of the law of cosmos holography, so my dear readers, please read by yourselves Chapter 2, “The overall frame of the theory of language holography,” and I will not repeat it here. Now let us look, one by one, at the corroborations of the law of cosmos holography in language.
