Natural Languages and Context-Free Languages
Linguistics and Philosophy, 1982In his 1956 paper ‘Three Models for the Description of Language’ Noam Chomsky posed an interesting open question: when we consider the human languages purely as sets of strings of words (henceforth stringsets), do they always fall within the class called context-free languages (CFL’s)?

Are natural languages universal?
Synthese, 1976We began by distinguishing Tarskian and Fitchean notions of universality in such a way that the claim that no language is universal in the sense of Tarski is compatible with accepting Fitchean universality. Then we examined a proposal involving two truth concepts — one that fit the Fitchean notion and another that followed Tarski's views on truth ...

One of these efforts was to design controlled natural languages (CNL), which are subsets of natural languages, yet are easy to ...

And in a sense ‘explosive’ is the right word, because like the other sciences of man, linguistics is pursued in a number of mutually irreducible ways, according to ...
