Detailed explanation-1: -Chomsky concluded that children must have an inborn faculty for language acquisition. According to this theory, the process is biologically determined-the human species has evolved a brain whose neural circuits contain linguistic information at birth.
Detailed explanation-2: -Chomsky points out that a child could not possibly learn a language through imitation alone because the language spoken around them is highly irregular – adult’s speech is often broken up and even sometimes ungrammatical.
