Descrizione articolo

Riassunto

This text explores the consequences for language acquisition, evolution and theory of taking the underlying architecture of the language faculty to be that of a dynamical system and examines whether a complex adaptive system can identify the categories, structures and rules of a language given access only to instances of grammatical utterances.
