03/15/2002 Entry: "Interesting"

"By three or four years, children are essentially grammatically correct; in the case of auxiliaries, where there are 2.4 x 10^19 logically possible combinations, only around a hundred are actually grammatical - yet preschoolers made no errors in constructing auxiliaries (Strumswold, 1990)."

Beside this point in one of my short notes essays, my supervisor wrote, 'Interesting!'
