A short article about birds that might interest you
Hello Rabbi,
I came across a short article about birds that I thought might interest you. Especially the part that talks about the research they did on the development of bird language in isolation, and the convergence of the language after a few generations to the majority language without them coming into contact with the majority.
Best regards,
Yes, but there is some contradiction there. On the one hand, he claims that language is not innate but acquired. On the other hand, after he realizes that isolated communities reach similar results, he repeats that they have an innate aesthetic sense. It is not an aesthetic sense but a linguistic ability. Chomsky has already spoken about this in humans. It is possible that in order to bring this potential out of the power into action, a community is needed, but that does not mean that language is not innate. As a geometry teacher should, even though the insight is embedded in us from birth.
