Abstract:

Are all children exposed to the same linguistic input, and do they follow the 
same route in acquisition? The answer is no: The language that children hear 
differs even within a social class or cultural setting, as do the paths individual 
children take. The linguistic signal itself is also variable, both within and across 
speakers - the same sound is different across words; the same speech act can 
be realized with different constructions. The challenge here is to explain, given 
their diversity of experience, how children arrive at similar generalizations about 
their first language. This volume brings together studies of phonology, 
morphology, and syntax in development, to present a new perspective on how 
experience and variation shape children's linguistic generalizations. The papers 
deal with variation in forms, learning processes, and speaker features, and 
assess the impact of variation on the mechanisms and outcomes of language 
learning.
