Among the marvels of nature is a child’s ability to acquire language. The ease with which children progress from the babbling stage through the one-word stage to the telegraphic speech of two-word stage and beyond has sparked a lively debate concerning how they do it. Behaviorist B. F. Skinner explained that we learn language by familiar principles of limitation and reinforcement. Challenging this claim, linguistic Naomi Chomsky argued that children are biologically prepared to learn words and use grammar. Cognitive neuroscientists emphasize that mastery of grammar, the learning that occurs during life’s first few years is critical.
