Noam Chomsky's linguistic theories are of such relevance that they even contributed to other fields, such as Computer Science and the development of programming languages and the first compilers. Nowadays his theories are still used in the development of Speech Recognition Systems and Natural Language Processing. I just thought that even though a little off topic, it's worth mentioning.

worth noting, Chomsky has dedicated the last decade and a half to talking about the existential threats to humanity- the threat of nuclear war, environmental crisis and attacks on democracy.
For 40 years he's known for spending 5 hours each night responding to people that email him sincere questions.
Today, at 92 he says he's busier than ever. Reminds me of marathon runners and boxers. They don't slow down, they get faster and work harder until the end.

(Chomsky's dad) William has such an admirable reason for educating people: so they "may become well integrated, free and independent in their thinking, concerned about improving and enhancing the world, and eager to participate in making life more meaningful and worthwhile for all". He sounds like the sort of person that would encourage others to engage in the world again, encourage people to resist in spite of corporatocracy and simulated paranoia. Thank you for sharing, Sisyphus!

I used math to learn Japanese... The mere fact that this is a possibility, that grammar has an order of operations, that different languages have different orders, etc... is a huge breakthrough. I'm applying the method to Old Icelandic, we'll have to see how it pans out. But I got the idea during a fit of mania after reading about the innate ability of people to acquire language.

Youâre less than a decade away from sounding like Chomsky.
