Abstract

Every language has its characteristics and rules, though all languages share the same components like words, sentences, subject, verb, object and so on. Nevertheless, Chomsky suggested the theory of language acquisition in children instinctively through a universal grammar that represents a universal grammar for all human languages. Since it has its declaration, this theory has encountered criticism from linguists. In this paper, the criticism will be presented, and the conclusion that the general rule is not compatible with all human languages will be suggested by studying some human languages as a case namely Arabic, English, and Russian.
