Soliciting questions for BUCLD debate between Stephen Crain and Michael
Tomasello:
"Where does grammar come from? A debate on the nature of child language
acquisition"

This year's Boston University Conference on Language Development (Nov.
5-7) will feature a 2-hour debate between Stephen Crain and Michael
Tomasello entitled: "Where does grammar come from? A debate on the
nature of child language acquisition." The speakers will first present
their own positions on this question, and then respond to each other's
positions.  During the last half hour or so, they will respond to
questions submitted in advance by you, members of the language
development community.  So I'm writing now to solicit your questions.
Any questions are welcome, representing any theoretical perspective or
about any topic relevant to the debate.  So here's your chance to ask
that question that's always been bothering you, or that you could never
understand, or that you just want to know about.

Please send any and all questions to Seungwan Ha at <langconf at bu.edu>
by October 15, 2004.
