Chomsky's contribution to the study of language has, over the last
four decades, been enormous, and has exerted a powerful influence
throughout the other cognitive sciences. Language is, arguably, an
even more distinctively human characteristic than intelligence, and
the thousands of different human languages are, according to
Chomsy, cut to the same general pattern. This pattern is
determined, he claims, by innate structuring principles which only
human beings possess. Chomsky's search for the universal in
language has revitalized the question of the relationship between
language and mind, and has provided a powerful new tool, generative
grammar, for students of language.
