The Fundamentally Simple Logic of Language: Learning a Second Language with the Tools of the Native Speaker presents a data-driven approach to understanding how native speakers do not use subject and direct object to process language.Native speakers know who does what in a sentence by applying intuitively two simple inferences that are argued to be part of universal grammar. These two inferences explain the native speaker's ease of acquisition and use, and answer difficult questions for linguistics (transitivity, case, semantic roles) in such a way that undergraduate students and second language learners can understand these concepts and apply them to their own language acquisition. The book explains and exemplifies these two inferences throughout.
While Spanish is used as the primary example, the theory can be applied to many other languages.
