Chomsky argued that the goals of linguistics are not the enumeration and description of performance phenomena, but rather they are introspection and explantion of linguistic competence. Second, even if we accept enumeration and description as a goal for linguistics, it seems an unattainable one, as natural languages are not finite. As a consequence, the enumeration of sentences can never possibly yield as adequate description of language. How can a partial corpus be the sole explicandum of an infinite language? Finally, we must not eschew introspection entirely. If we do, detecting ungrammatical structures and ambiguous strucutres becomes difficult, and indeed may be impossible.\" - Page 10.
