Early phonological development

[Marilyn Vihman]

Dear Nina,

If you were working on this project with me I would recommend shorter 
recording sessions but more frequent intervals, since the lexicon and 
phonological patterning of children changes so rapidly in this period. 
If you'd like more of my views, just write me directly; I have data 
from children of those ages learning a number of different languages.
