    The word ''intuition'' is used here in a technical sense which has become stand-
    ardised in Linguistics: by saying that a native speaker has ''intuitions'' about the
    well-formedness and structure of sentences, all we are saying is that he has the
    ability to make ''judgments
    about whether a given sentence is well-formed or
    not, and about whether it has a particular structure or not. [...]
