  • curprev 03:4103:41, 24 May 2008imported>John Stephenson 29,446 bytes +622 →‎Core areas: delete 'prosody/intonation' - this is part of phonology/phonetics - and made subsections rather than bulleted points; also moved a comment about philosophy to a footnote
  • curprev 03:3403:34, 24 May 2008imported>John Stephenson 29,181 bytes +357 removed italicisation for the questions in the introduction - I think it looks better, though others may disagree...

  • curprev 02:5302:53, 21 August 2007imported>Stephen Ewen 28,799 bytes +28 simplify wording while hopefully retaining the same meanng. I won't be offended by a thoughtful revert.
  • curprev 02:4802:48, 21 August 2007imported>Stephen Ewen 28,771 bytes −7,729 this is much smoother and contains the same meaning, I think: ..is unacceptable in English, but children recognize this long before they receive any formal grammatical instruction

7 July 2007

  • curprev 04:4104:41, 7 July 2007imported>John Stephenson 37,126 bytes +762 Rewrite of the phonetics and phonology part; I think some of the new material posed more questions than answers, e.g. what a tone language is

  • curprev 12:2412:24, 6 July 2007imported>Joshua Taubererm 37,116 bytes −22 why not just avert the question altogether?--nativism gets in already in the universality issue that came first
  • curprev 12:2012:20, 6 July 2007imported>Russell Potter 37,138 bytes +774 such things may seem instinctual, but language is clearly a learned (acquired) behavior
