Abstract
Annotation: This article explores the concept of language universals, which are
the fundamental attributes shared by all human languages, regardless of their specific
structure or form. The author delves into several key characteristic features of language
universals, shedding light on the commonalities that underlie the diversity of languages
worldwide. The features discussed include phonemic inventory, grammar and syntax,
morphology, semantics, pragmatics, recursion, and communication modalities. The
article also touches upon the ongoing debate among linguists regarding the origins of
language universals, whether they arise from innate cognitive structures or are shaped
by cultural and environmental factors. Overall, this comprehensive article provides
valuable insights into the essential elements that make language a universal and unique
human phenomenon, serving as a foundation for linguistic diversity and
communication.
