Chomskyan ideas have dominated the linguistic field of syntax since their birth.

乔姆斯基的思想从其诞生之日起就一直统治着语言学的句法领域。

Critics refer to a cult of acolytes around a Great Leader, unwilling to challenge him or engage seriously with the work of non-Chomskyan scholars.

批评家们把这些解释为一群围着伟大领导者打转的信徒们对乔姆斯基的狂热崇拜，他们不愿意挑战他或从事非乔姆斯基学派的学术工作。

Chomskyan theory posits a mental operation, " Merge" , which glues smaller units together to form larger ones that can then be operated on further (and so on).

乔姆斯基理论假定了一种心理操作" 合并" ，即将较小的单元粘合在一起形成较大的单元，然后对较大的单元再进行这种操作（如此等等）。

Perhaps most notably, Chomskyan theories hold that children learn their native languages with astonishing speed and ease despite " the poverty of the stimulus" : the sloppy and occasional language they hear in childhood.

或许最值得注意的是，乔姆斯基的理论认为，尽管儿童在童年时只偶尔听到一些零碎语句，因而" 语言刺激贫瘠" ，但儿童能以惊人的速度轻而易举地学会母语。
