Chatterboxes
  1. "Language is not just any cultural invention but the product of a special human instinct."
    1. Language does not have to do with social progress.
      1. There are Stone Age societies, but there is no such thing as a Stone Age language.
        1. A language is a dialect with an army and a navy
          1. Speaking:
            1. Grammatical
              1. Well-formed according to consistent rules in the dialect of the speakers.
              2. Ungrammatical
                1. Sentences include randomly broken-off sentence fragments
              3. Language is invaluable for all the activities of daily living
                1. Necessity being the mother of invention, language could have been invented by resourceful people a number of times long ago.
                  1. Universal grammar can simply reflect the basic exigencies of human experience
                    1. All languages have words for "water" and "foot" because all people need to refer to water and feet.
                      1. No language has a word a million syllables long because no person would have time to say it.
                        1. Complex language is universal because children actually reinvent it, generation after generation because they just can't help it.
                        2. Pidgin
                          1. A makeshift jargon developed when speakers of different languages have to communicate to carry out practical tasks but do not have the opportunity to learn one another's languages
                            1. Becomes a more complex language:
                              1. A group of children exposed to the pidgin at the age when they acquire their mother tongue:
                                1. It becomes their
                                  1. native tounge
                                    1. Creole
                                      1. The language that results when children make a pidgin their native tongue
                                        1. Provides a particularly clear window on the innate grammatical machinery of the brain
                                          1. Sign languages
                                            1. They are not pantomimes and gestures: each one is a distinct, full language, using the same kinds of grammatical machinery found worldwide in spoken languages
                                            2. Our mental algorithms for grammar do not pick out words by their linear positions,
                                              1. Rather, group words into phrases, and phrases into even bigger phrases, and give each one a mental label
                                                1. If language is an instinct > it is an identifiable seat in the brain,
                                                  1. (Grammar could fail, but not grammar-dependent understanding).
                                                    1. There are instances where language is independent from intelligence
                                                      1. All the cases constitute a field guide to language users. They show that complex grammar is displayed across the full range of human habitats
                                                        1. "You don’t need extremely specific conditions to develop language. Indeed, you can possess all sort of advantages and still not be a competent language user, if you lack just the right genes or just the right bits of brain."
                                                  2. Poverty of the input
                                                    1. -The basic design of language is innate
                                                      1. "Mastery is part of children's grammar explosion, a period of several months in the third year of life during which children suddenly begin to speak in fluent sentences".
                                                      2. language acquisition cannot be explained as a kind of imitation
