Resumo: | Abstract The complex relationship between language and economic science still raises many debates and reflections. This paper explores this interaction in Adam Smith's work through his essays on the formation of languages (Considerations on the first formation of languages) and the production of knowledge (mainly, History of Astronomy). More specifically, we show that the way Smith criticizes, in The Wealth of Nations, the mercantilist and physiocratic conceptions of wealth is anchored in the author's ideas regarding the formation of words. To do so, we present the perspective of these essays and afterwards show how it is present in Smith's criticism of the other two systems of political economy and in the elaboration of his own concept of wealth. Keywords: Adam Smith, language, wealth; commanded labor; exchangeable value. JEL Codes: B12, B41. |

The grammar of trade in Adam Smith’s workA gramática das trocas na obra de Adam SmithAbstract The complex relationship between language and economic science still raises many debates and reflections. This paper explores this interaction in Adam Smith's work through his essays on the formation of languages (Considerations on the first formation of languages) and the production of knowledge (mainly, History of Astronomy). More specifically, we show that the way Smith criticizes, in The Wealth of Nations, the mercantilist and physiocratic conceptions of wealth is anchored in the author's ideas regarding the formation of words. To do so, we present the perspective of these essays and afterwards show how it is present in Smith's criticism of the other two systems of political economy and in the elaboration of his own concept of wealth. Keywords: Adam Smith, language, wealth; commanded labor; exchangeable value. JEL Codes: B12, B41.Resumo A complexa relação entre linguagem e ciência econômica ainda suscita muitos debates e reflexões. Este artigo explora essa interação na obra de Adam Smith a partir de seus ensaios sobre a formação das línguas (Considerações sobre a primeira formação das línguas) e a produção de conhecimento (principalmente, História da astronomia). Mais especificamente, apresentamos como a crítica de Smith às concepções de riqueza mercantilista e fisiocrática exposta em A riqueza das nações está ancorada nas ideias do autor a respeito da formação das palavras. Para tanto, apresentamos a perspectiva desses ensaios e, posteriormente, mostramos como ela está presente nas críticas de Smith aos outros dois sistemas de economia política e na elaboração do seu próprio conceito de riqueza. Palavras-chave: Adam Smith; linguagem; riqueza; trabalho comandado; valor de troca.
