Language models as tools for investigating the distinction between possible and impossible natural languages
Kallini, Julie, Potts, Christopher
December 5, 2025 Abstract We argue that language models (LMs) have strong potential as investigative tools for probing the distinction between possible and impossible natural languages and thus uncovering the inductive biases that support human language learning. We outline a phased research program in which LM architectures are iteratively refined to better discriminate between possible and impossible languages, supporting linking hypotheses to human cognition. Which conceivable linguistic systems are possible for humans to learn and use as natural languages? A complete answer to this question would yield profound insights into the human capacity for language. However, our tools for addressing the question are very limited.
