Are syntactic structure and recursion equally basic properties of human language?  

Solutions

Expert Solution

Yes, both, the syntactic structure and recursion are equally basic properties of human language.

First off, both, syntactic structure and recursion are unique, basic, and important properties of human language. Recursion is an essential and crucial property of natural language or just a language. The property depicts one sentence containing another. Recursion means repetition. Phrases repetition and other sentences inclusions are a result of the recursive property of a language.

Recursion is a fundamental or basic, natural and unique part of the human language faculty. The instinct about syntactic structure is the property of recursion. Recursion is an operation permitting a finite set of rules to generate an infinite number of expressions. The recursion operation has been depicted as an important and unique property of human language.

Whereas, about syntactic structure, there is no human language with rules ignoring syntactic structure. So it is important. Complex sentences are re-expressed in sequences of syntactically simpler sentences.
