Abstract

The article deals with the main language concepts that existed in the history of philosophic views, considers some peculiarities of foreign languages teaching, and defines teaching tasks in the context of language education. Interests in language, its origins and characteristics and other problems related to language go beyond linguistics limits and are regarded as one of the most important philosophic problems. The basis of scientific knowledge, as you know, are the ideals and norms of research, the scientific picture of the world, as well as philosophical foundations.  Philosophy is actively involved in the nomination and construction of theories, the approval of new phenomena designed to reveal one of the aspects of the scientific picture of the world. The philosophical foundations of the development of science are different.  There are, as you know, dialectical materialistic, metaphysical, idealistic, positivist foundations and their varieties
