LAD
LAD is the abbreviations of Language acquisition device that refers to Chomsky’s term for the innate knowledge of grammar that humans were said to possess-knowledge that might enable young children to infer the rules governing others’ speech and to use these rules to produce language.
In psycholinguistic theory, LAD is a neural "prewiring" that facilitates the child's learning of grammar.
