The Review of Linguistic Competence in Ebne Khaldon's View

Ebne Khaldon has discussed about one of the most important linguistic subjects, that is “the ability of language”. He emphasizes on linguistic creativity as an opportunity to achieve the meaning of linguistic competence and says that lingual talent is related to human’s natural ability. On the one hand, he expresses that non-Arabic people profit from Arabic language because the first language takes precedence over their second language, and on the other side, remembers some famous persons like “Siboie” “Pharsi” and “Zomokhshari”; although they are Iranians, but their life between Arabic families made them to achieve Arabic language queen depth. Ebne Khaldon believes that there is an inseparable relationship between language and society and that the sovereignty language is ideology language that governs the society, so he is going to survey linguistic changes in terms of “time” and “place”. The results of this study showed that Ebne Khaldon thoughts are modern and that he is the originator of “linguistic competence”, not “Chamsy”.
