This paper deals with the concept of internal versus external explanation in linguistics and the difficulty of drawing a clear-cut dividing line. Crosslinguistic comparison helps us to understand what may be considered as strictly pertaining to the linguistic dimension or to a larger cognitive frame. Linguistic categories are then discussed in this frame of reference and a scheme is proposed where the notion of “category” does not apply to concepts such as “passive”, “perfect”, or “subject”. Finally it is maintained that the classical “parts-of-speech” theory is still a valuable tool for crosslinguistic comparison in a typological perspective.
