The present paper discusses the acquisition and learnability problems with the Japanese sika-nai construction and the well-known English wanna-contraction phenomenon with special reference to the current concern over the "evolution of language" and the long-standing desirability of efficient computation. Assuming with Frampton and Gutmann (1999, 2002) that only their crash-proof cyclic computation can be efficient computation for human language in its most interesting sense, the present paper shows in the empirical domain of acquisition/explanatory adequacy that only a crash-proof computational system can ensure the learnability of the Japanese and English constructions to be discussed in the text.
