NEW BOOK

[Anat Ninio]

Hi Nameera,

Thanks a lot!  Absolutely coincidentally this very minute I'm reading 
your 2008 (or is it 2009?) encyclopedia entry

Akhtar, N., & Herold, K. (2008). Pragmatic development. In M. M. Haith & 
J. B. Benson (Eds.), /Encyclopedia of infant and early childhood 
development,/ Vol. /2/ (pp. 572-581). San Diego, CA: Academic Press.

which I want to cite for a research proposal for an European grant. 
First, is it 2008 or 2009? Second, you say

"We know of no empirical research, however, that has directly addressed 
the question of whether children learn syntactic constructions in the 
same way as they learn words; that is,through "pragmatic bootstrapping" 
or attention to speakers' intentions."(p.319)

Would you still say so? Or is there some new study that you know of that 
I should mention? Any newer publication of yours on this point?

Thanks a lot and see you in SRCD for sure,

Anat
