Hello Chomsky!
I can't claim to be a great authority. I saw the film `Noam and Love Him'
and became intrigued. I am interested in concept of an original biological
language from which all languages have sprung. It stands to reason. I don't
mean to sound like Dr. Doolittle but animals have a language of a sort -
mating calls, warnings, threats. Likewise human language can be seen
not as many letters and combinations but as gutturals, labials, dentals
and palatials.
