Abstract: Since 1950s, Chomsky has been Conducting research on internal language using biolinguistic methodology. In 2005, he proposes language design and believes that language research is a subpart of biology. In 1980s, embodied cognition presumes that mind derives from bodily experiences grounded in sensorimotor systems. In the final decade of 20th century, neuroimaging techniques are applied to investigate the changes in different cortical areas during psychological activities and the cortical areas related with linguistic functions are found out. This article attempts to elucidate the neural basis for language from the achievements made by generative grammar, embodied cognition, neural theories and new developments in cognitive neuroscience.
