Language acquisition is a very particular type of learning problem: it is a problem where the target of the learning process is itself the outcome of a learning process. Language can therefore adapt to the learning algorithm. I present a model that shows that due to this effect - and contrary to some claims from the Universal Grammar tradition - "unlearnable" grammars can be successfully acquired, and grammatical coherence in a population can be maintained.
