[QUOTE]Originally posted by Cartman: [QB] (A language [which is a [[possibly infinite]] set of strings, each composed of words [[which are formed from morphemes, which are in turn formed from symbols [[[from a finite collection [[[[called an alphabet]]]]]]], and together make up a lexicon]] according to certain syntactical production rules [[which define a grammar, and in natural languages are notoriously ambiguous]]] spoken by just one $individual is still a language, though its use for communication would be near-zero.) ((Whether the alphabet consists of letters, numbers, beeps, smells, or clicks is neither here nor there, really, so long as those constituents can be parsed.)) [/QB][/QUOTE]
