Language activity and language-speech relations in it

In the history of linguistics, the merit of comparative-historical linguistics is great. Nevertheless, since his main goal was the comparative study of languages and the mental reconstruction of Bobotil forms, the question of the direct speech process and the participation of the speaker in this process remained ignored. This limited aspect of comparative-historical linguistics attracted the attention of young Grammarians and was overcome by F.de Saussure's linguistic teaching.
