AbstractUniversal grammar is a theory in linguistics that suggests all possible natural human languages are based upon an innate common structural basis. However there are some criticisms against this theory of Noam Chomsky. Some of these criticisms are mentioned here. For example, as Withers (۲۰۱۰) argued, some Critics state that Chomsky is “guilty of overgeneralization”. Many of Chomsky’s opponents deride his assertion as “unsubstantiated” by empirical research. Others find a weakness in his theory on the grounds that it neglects to account for environmental considerations.Keywords: Chomsky, Universal Grammar, Criticisms
