Title
Language theory for the computer : monodimensional semantics or multidimensional semiotics?

Abstract
Computer linguistics continues to be in need of an integrative language-theory model. Maria Theresia Rolland proposes such a model in her book 'Sprachverarbeitung durch Logotechnik' (1994). Relying upon the language theory of Leo Weisgerber, she pursues a pure 'content oriented' approach, by which she understands an approach in terms of the semantics of words. Starting from the 'implications' of word-contents, she attempts to construct a complete grammar of the German language. The reviewer begins his comments with an immanent critique, calling attention to a number of serious contradictions in Rolland's concept, among them, her refusal to take syntax into account despite its undeniable real presence.In the second part of his comments, the reviewer then takes up his own semiotic language theory published in 1981, showing that semantics is but one of four semiotic dimensions of language, the other dimanesion being the sigmatic, the pragmatic and the syntactic. Without taking all four dimensions into account, no theory can offer an adequate integrative language model. Indeed, without all four dimensions, one cannot even develop an adequate grammar of German sentence construction. The fourfold semiotic model dicloses as well the universally valid structures of language as the intersubjective expression of human self-awareness. Only on the basis of these universal structures, it is argued, is it possible to identify the specific structures of a native-language, and that on all four levels. This position has important consequences for the problems of computer translation and the comparative study and use of languages
