im sure this rocks if you know french but alas. i do not.
A screenshot from Saussure's "Course in general linguistics" which reads: "La langue: 'un esemble de conventione nécessaires adoptées par le corps social pour permettre l'usage de la faculté du langage chez les individus.' La parole: 'l'acte d l'individu réalisant sa faculté au moyen de la convention sociale qui est la langue.' Langue and parole are thus both defined by reference to the mental faculty involved (le langage) and not by reference to the community or to the community's speech practices (which differ from one country to another."
