The man in the picture is Noam Chomsky, He is a very well known and widely respected Language Scientist. He is american and all his life, he has done research in the areas of Grammar and Language Development, among others.
At the core of his theory there is the thought that the structures of language are not mere ordering of words, in that there are principles underlying the structure of language biologically determined in the mind, and he thinks they are, therefore, genetically transmitted, in other words, since we come to life as humans, we come with the capability for language development.
He changed my perspectives of why people learn a language, of how people learn it and how can that process be reproduced in further stages of life such as "learning" a language as an adult or as he says, "acquiring" a foreign language in later stages and contexts of a lifetime.
He is considered the Father of Modern Linguistics and because of his extensive research, many new methodologies to language study, and also many new areas have opened up, an example is the applications of his language theory into Neuroscience and IT and Artificial Intelligence , and even today he keeps on opening up new ares of thought mixing his theories with Discourse and particularly Public Discourse Critical Analysis, and needless say, he is a must-study for every Linguistics or language-related-area-student.
I found Noam Chomsky a very interesting person, I will look him up because I am interested in how we learn.
ResponderEliminarI had never heard of Noa Chomsky, but reading about him on his blog has been a nice experience.
ResponderEliminarIt is chaotic to think about the background of language and the role of genetics in it.
ResponderEliminarI'm sure I've heard his name before and now I understand why, he is admirable.
ResponderEliminari didn´t know about him
ResponderEliminarI didn't know about Noam chomsky, his study topic is very interesting, thanks very much for wrote about he.
ResponderEliminarWhat useful information. Considering that later I would like to learn a lot of languages, their methods could help me a lot.
ResponderEliminarI don't know Noam Chomsky, but what he did with the structure of language is quite interesting.
ResponderEliminarwow i had never heard of noam chomsky, but he sounds like an amazing person.
ResponderEliminarI didn't know about him, but with this post its sound like a very important person for the world of learning languages, i need to found more information of he!
ResponderEliminarI’ve never heard of it, but reading what you say draws my attention enough as it influenced you to change your perspective on how people learn a language.
ResponderEliminarOnce I read a phrase that Noam Chomsky said that I liked and marked a lot, because it is related to the career I am studying. "Media manipulation does more damage than the atomic bomb, because it destroys brains." I hope he really said it and it wasn't a social media lie haha.
ResponderEliminarI didn't know Noam Chomsky, but reading about him has been interesting.... Languages aren’t my forte.
ResponderEliminarThat's interesting, I've never heard of it.
ResponderEliminarI didn't know him, however his theory seems very interesting to me sometimes that the fact that a baby learns to speak is conditioned by multiple factors, as he mentions in his theory
ResponderEliminarI'd never heard of Noam Chomsky, what you say about him is very interesting, especially that it changed your perspective on how people learn a new language.
ResponderEliminarI am new in the subject, that interesting
ResponderEliminarHonestly I remember that at the school, one of my Spanish teachers talked about this man. At that time I was not interested, perhaps because I was still very young. Now, and reading this, I am interested in knowing more about Noam Chomsky.
ResponderEliminarNow that i know about Noam Chomsky im going to feel present in all your future clases
ResponderEliminarWow, I’ve never heard of it. It’s interesting to learn about different exponents of other areas of study.
ResponderEliminarI had never heard of him. Apparently, he is a reference in his field
ResponderEliminarIt made me very curious, I'm going to investigate it
ResponderEliminarHonestly I don't know him, but is interesting his contribution for the languaje.
ResponderEliminarI had never heard of Noam Chamsky but his theory sounds interesting more if i think in some of my classes talks about of the public discourse
ResponderEliminarwow, that's really interesting. I knew, but I never knew who it was
ResponderEliminarI did not know Noam Chomsky, but I am glad to know that thanks to him new ways of teaching communication are being taken.
ResponderEliminarI didn't know Noam Chomsky, but is very interesting to learn about his work and his legacy in the linguistics...
ResponderEliminarI think the research in the fields of grammar and language development is very interesting! I can imagine all the research behind it
ResponderEliminarThis person has been a great contribution to today's society, really very interesting
ResponderEliminarI didn't know about him, very interesting his impact on the Language Scientist
ResponderEliminarI had never heard about this character. It is very interesting to know what he did, I will investigate more about him :)
ResponderEliminarChomsky's contributions make him a pivotal figure in modern linguistics and essential for students in related disciplines is very interesting.
ResponderEliminarThe truth is that I never heard of Chomsky in my life (I think so) but it is impresive the amount of things he has done.
ResponderEliminarnever heard of Noam Chomsky until now
