本文围绕“动词哲学”提出并论证了四个理由。第一，动词哲学作为一种自反性语言哲学，转向语言系统内部，尤其关注动词在语言与思维中的作用，这为寻找语言的思想语法增加了另一个路径。第二，动词哲学重新反思了主体性，试图建立人类自己的创世论，形成一个新神学视角，把思想从名词性的对象移向动词性的存在论事件，即人类如何创造历史世界的时间，由此开启另一种神学以及另一种存在论问题。第三，名词哲学将思想集中于事物、属性与本质之上；动词哲学则分析变动性、涌现性与构成性，因而主张思想应从“是什么”转向“如何生成”，将思想从静态本质论引向动态生成论。第四，动词哲学以动词系统作为反思名词系统的元语言：名词的意义（描述集合的函数）可进一步解释为动词集合的函数（“生成x”）。这可以回避名词解释名词的重言局限，回到事物的生成过程，也就是把结果重新理解为问题。

The author supports his philosophy of verbs with four arguments as follows:(1)a philosophy of verbs could lead to the reflexive confession of the verbs that explain the how of making things,therefore better understand the facts other than the fabrications of things in nouns;(2)a philosophy of verbs re-explains the subjectivity in terms of a humanized creationism with a new theology that turns to verbs,rather than nouns,which make ontological events,especially of making histories out of time;(3)a philosophy of verbs focuses on the making that explains the becoming and emergences,in contrast to nouns that define,actually fabricate,the unchangeable isness of things. All nouns(exclusion of the proper names)are essentially metaphysical,only true in logic yet not true to the world;(4)the system of verbs could function as a metalanguage,while the system of nouns be made the object-language,so that a natural language might build its reflexivity in a more or less Godel way. It means turning conclusions into questions.
