摘要
The recent discovery of the FOXP2 gene has provided us with the first clear evidence of the genetic basis of language. Such a discovery has shown an unmistakable genetic correlation between a mutated version of F0XP2 and several linguistic impairments suffered by an English family, named KE. The main objective of this arricie is to discuss a number of topics concerning the aforementioned discovery. More specifically, the paper aims at discussing the significance of F0X2 with regard to language and language development.
