For those who don't know who Chomsky is, he was a professor at MIT who first figured out language has a genetic base and he is considered one of the world's greatest thinkers. Chomsky's ideas are a legacy followed by a fairly tribal political niche. The field is still evolving and debating, as it should be. vox.com snip The debate Wolfe covers is over nothing so simple as sequences of mnemonics. There are schools of syntax besides the Chomskyan one, more attendant to human cognition (and sometimes, evolutionary principles), which also have a good bit of jargon and require a class or two to understand (my money is one pioneered by Peter Culicover and Ray Jackendoff). snip p.s. the name Ray Jackendoff didn't escape my fifth grade mind.
