He studied language as expression from contentism and criticized formism and functionism, like structural linguistics or the theory of generative grammar. He regarded Tokieda's theory, also known as "Gengo Katei Setsu"(Language-as-a-Process Theory), as "the world highest standard theory" and created his original language theory based on Tokieda's theory.
