The title is significantly overstated. DLM isn't a language, it is a rule that many languages seem to follow and says nothing about Chompsky.

- nerd_stuff 11y agoI think the title isn't overstated but awkward in a way that we're all translating it into an overstatement. Between the quotes and not knowing what a language universal was I assumed they meant a universal language, apparently I'm not alone in this. The authors might write paper on this phenomenon next!
