The human brain is hardwired for language.

the verdict
INSUFFICIENT LEANING
Recorded sources
7 sources for · 0 against

Counts group repeated records of the same source within each side. They do not measure evidence strength or source independence.

Is it true that the human brain is hardwired for language?

Unclear. Several sources assert or suggest that the brain is innately wired for language, including a peer-reviewed paper on hardwired speech processing and a textbook-style page on innate language acquisition. All of these support the idea only partially or as hypothesis and assertion, not as a demonstrated general fact.
