Re: LOGO-L> Language vs Visual



It's interesting how much interest and how many responses were caused by
the problems of binary structure, Morse Code, Alphabetical Writing vs.
ASCII code, etc... In the sixties and later on  there were even attempts to
demonstrate that any language has essentially binary structure. I mean the
Transformational Grammar Theory by Noam Chomsky. (Now it is so called
Government and Binding Theory). Chomsky tried to prove that any sentence
has essentially binary structure. Subject and Predicate Group on the first
level, Noun and a Modifier, a Verb and a Modifyer on the nexgt level and so
on.
