Maybe?
It hasn't been proved one way or the other yet.

| I think the instruments to learn language are hard-wired into the brain but the language itself is acquired through interaction.

| I’d say for someone language, any language, is hardwired in the brain, and thus with just little practice it manages to learn it well. So as Julia said: “the instruments to learn language are hard-wired into the brain” some have it more developed and some less, but practice is the only way for those with the less developed one.

| The idea is that universal grammar, not specific, is hard-wired.
