The document discusses language acquisition without an innate language acquisition device. It proposes the Amelioration Hypothesis, where language acquisition is a byproduct of the processor developing routines to improve its own functioning when processing language input, rather than the result of an innate language acquisition mechanism. As an example, it describes how a processor could develop a routine for basic subject-verb-object word order in English through repeated exposure to sentences without any innate syntactic knowledge, by mapping words onto meanings in a consistent order. With increased experience, these routines would be strengthened through automatization, resulting in the learner committing to the dominant word order of their language.
