The Language Acquisition Device (LAD) is a concept proposed by the linguist Noam Chomsky in the 1960s. It refers to an innate biological mechanism or mental faculty that enables humans to acquire language. According to Chomsky's theory, all humans have this built-in capability, which allows them to understand and produce language despite the complexity and variety of linguistic inputs they encounter as children.
