Dear Helen (et al.)

Karin Stromswold has done some potentially relevant work on the
syntactic abilities (in comprehension) of a child who, during his
pre-school years, was producing only one-word utterances, but who
tested normally on comprehension measures of syntax. What I don't
recall is whether she tested him on RCs....

With best wishes,

William
