Appreciative System

Famous quotes containing the words appreciative and/or system:

    O scenes of the beautiful world! Never have you presented yourself to more appreciative eyes.
    Thomas Mann (1875–1955)

    UG [universal grammar] may be regarded as a characterization of the genetically determined language faculty. One may think of this faculty as a ‘language acquisition device,’ an innate component of the human mind that yields a particular language through interaction with present experience, a device that converts experience into a system of knowledge attained: knowledge of one or another language.
    Noam Chomsky (b. 1928)
