Pinker, in chapter five, titled Words, Words, Words, argues that English is difficult due to inflectional endings, creative compounding, affixing, and the creativity of the human mind to create new words. Pinker writes: “somehow a baby must intuit the correct meaning of a word and avoid the mind-boggling number of logically impeccable alternatives.” And yet, everyone succeeds on some basic level in communicating at least basic needs. However, the length, depth, and scope of a person's ability to communicate may very well lie in the fact that a person's ability to interpret and internalize these anomalies of the language of their region, may give just evidence to communication, educational, and other issues which impair a person's ability to succeed at higher levels.
