CHILD DEVELOPMENT PEDAGOGY

Detailed explanation-1: -Chomsky based his theory on the idea that all languages contain similar structures and rules (a universal grammar), and the fact that children everywhere acquire language the same way, and without much effort, seems to indicate that we’re born wired with the basics already present in our brains.

Detailed explanation-2: -universal grammar (UG) (noun): a theory in linguistics usually credited to Noam Chomsky that suggests that the ability to learn grammar is built into the human brain from birth regardless of language. In the 1960s, linguists became interested in a new theory about grammar, or the laws of language.

Detailed explanation-3: -He has made a number of strong claims about language: in particular, he suggests that language is an innate faculty-that is to say that we are born with a set of rules about language in our minds, which he refers to as the ‘Universal Grammar’. The universal grammar is the basis upon which all human languages build.

Detailed explanation-4: -Chomsky’s theory of language acquisition argues that human brain structures naturally allow for the capacity to learn and use languages. Chomsky believed that rules for language acquisition are innate (inborn) and strengthen naturally as humans grow and develop.

Detailed explanation-5: -In the 1960s, linguists became interested in a new theory about grammar, or the laws of language. The theory was popularized by an American linguist named Noam Chomsky who often focused on the effortless language learning of young children.
