LING323: Child Language Acquisition |
The unit introduces students to current theories of language acquisition, and studies children's acquisition of phonology, word learning, morphology, syntax and pragmatics. Other topics include child bilingualism and child second language acquisition. Tutorials will focus on working with data, including transcript data from children's spontaneous speech, and discussions of appropriate experimental methodologies for evaluating children's knowledge of language.
