Example: The man in the picture is Noam Chomsky, He is a very well known and widely respected Language Scientist. He is american and all his life, he has done research in the areas of grammar and language development among others. 


At the core of his theory there is the thought that the structures of language are not mere ordering of words in  that there aprinciples underlying the structrure of languge biologically determined in the mind and he thinks they are, therefore, genetically transmitted, in other words, since we come to life as humans, we come with the capability for language development.


He changed my perspectives of why people learn a language, of how people learn it and how can that proces be reproduced in further stages of life such as "learning" a laguange as an adult or  as he says, "acquiring" a foreign language in later stages and contexts of a lifetime.


He is considered the Father of Modern Linguistics and because of his extensive research, many new methodologies to language study, and also many new areas have opened up, an example is the applications of his language theory into Neuroscience and IT, and even today he keeps on opening up new ares of thought mixing his theories with discourse and particularly public discourse critical analysis, and needless say, he is a must-study for every linguistics or language-related-area-student.

    There are many opinions about the ability of people to acquire new languages. I think I'll have to tell me more about the theory of Noam Chomsky, it sounds interesting.

    Sounds very interesting, for us is very important to know linguistics and theory must be one of the concrete so it is said of it, it must be appreciated in the world of linguistics.

    Ohh you made me back in time with this post, I remember when I was 14 years old and my dad talked to me about Chamsky and he said the language is genetic and has not changed since it left Africa, well at that time I didn't know anything about it but now I can say that I don't think so, because (in my opinion) we don't "born" with it,we learn it. And for me, it change and has changed a lot! Just think about "chispeza" and "cachai" (LOL)

    I like Noam Chomsky very much, especially his literary activism. Anyway, is really hard to read the "linguistic Chomsky", but is necessary to understand his point of view of human society.

    I have heard so much of him, but never read him, but his work sounds very interesting, mostly for us that we will be future communicators

    I would like read more about Chomsky, but I wouldn't dare say that his theory about the human language is the correct one, because exist so many other .

    Chomsky is also a strong political activist and a critic of contemporary capitalism. He is an impressive man who is against Trump's campaign, reason enough for love him.
