Default cont. Chomsky is OK

Hi everyone!

The other day some English-Teacher friends were discussing over a coffee the Chomsky theory that says that every human being is biologically equipped to create a language that has the same basic linguistic structure.

Do you think this is true? I mean, what about Chinese, Japanese, the Arabic languages or Indigenous dialects...Do they have the same Subject + Verb + Predicate basic structure or not?

Thanks for your help!


And about the structure of language, the structure may vary, not all are the same.
