Since Frege, mental content (conscious content) has been distinguished from the meaning of natural language and not regarded mental content as the meaning of language expression. This anti-psychological view cuts off the connection between the meaning of language and mental content, giving rise to the failures in solving the problems of mind. Instead of thinking about linguistic meaning and mental content separately, philosophers of mind put more emphasis on mental content and even equate the meaning of linguistic expressions with it. Therefore, the issues that what the relationship between linguistic meaning and mental content is and how they are connected are not well answered so far. The author argues in this paper that: 1) People attach meaning to symbols through communication activities when they have mental contents, thus forming the language, which is also a process of achieving psychological certainty in turn; 2) the relationship between linguistic meaning and mental content is similar to the interdependent relationship between monetary value and the use value of commodities. Without the latter, the former will lose its source, and the former also affects the latter. Philosophers of mind pay little attention to the interplay between language and mental content. Based on the above arguments and previous theories, this paper conceives a general model of the generation of linguistic meaning.

自弗雷格以来，心理内容（意识内容）与自然语言的意义相区别，不再将心理内容视为语言表达的意义。这种反心理学的观点切断了语言意义与心理内容之间的联系，导致心理问题的解决失败。心智哲学家不再分别思考语言意义和心理内容，而是更加重视心理内容，甚至将语言表达的意义与它等同起来。因此，语言意义与心理内容之间的关系是什么以及它们如何联系起来的问题，目前还没有得到很好的解答。作者在本文中认为：1）人们在有心理内容的情况下，通过交际活动赋予符号意义，从而形成语言，这也是依次达到心理确定性的过程；2）语言意义与心理内容的关系类似于货币价值与商品使用价值的相互依存关系。没有后者，前者就会失去源头，前者也会影响后者。心灵哲学家很少关注语言和心理内容之间的相互作用。基于上述论点和前人的理论，本文构想了语言意义生成的一般模型。前者会失去源头，前者也会影响后者。心灵哲学家很少关注语言和心理内容之间的相互作用。基于上述论点和前人的理论，本文构想了语言意义生成的一般模型。前者会失去源头，前者也会影响后者。心灵哲学家很少关注语言和心理内容之间的相互作用。基于上述论点和前人的理论，本文构想了语言意义生成的一般模型。
