Yesterday we devoted our class to reflecting on the process of First Language Acquisition. We did so from a Nativist Position, and we discussed some central concepts of Chomsky's theory.
Apart from that, we considered the facts that need to be explained by any theory of FLA. These facts are very important because they highlight how unique the process of First Language Acquisition is.
Next class (in two weeks), we'll continue analyzing this crutial topic of our syllabus, so please finish reading the chapter (chapter 3 by Cook) and read Pinker's chapter 9 (Baby born talking describes Heaven).
