Abstract: This article explores the profound impact of philosophical thought on
the development and evolution of modern linguistic theory. It examines how various
philosophical paradigms have shaped linguistic methodologies, focusing on key
figures and schools of thought, including structuralism, formalism, and functionalism.
The analysis highlights the interplay between philosophical principles and linguistic
practices, demonstrating how philosophy continues to influence the ways in which
language is understood and studied in contemporary contexts.
