Noam Chomsky is a lot of things: cognitive scientist, philosopher, political activist and one of the fathers of modern linguistics, just to name a few. He has written more than 100 books and given lectures all over the world on topics ranging from syntax to failed states. In the infographic below, we take a look at some of his most well-known theories on language acquisition as if he were presenting them himself.
