Abstract:

In this handbook, renowned scholars from a range of backgrounds provide a
state of the art review of key developmental findings in language acquisition.
The book places language acquisition phenomena in a richly linguistic and
comparative context, highlighting the link between linguistic theory, language
development, and theories of learning. 

The book is divided into six parts. Parts I and II examine the acquisition of
phonology and morphology respectively, with chapters covering topics such as
phonotactics and syllable structure, prosodic phenomena, compound word
formation, and processing continuous speech. Part III moves on to the
acquisition of syntax, including argument structure, questions, mood
alternations, and possessives. In Part IV, chapters consider semantic aspects
of language acquisition, including the expression of genericity,
quantification, and scalar implicature. Finally, Parts V and VI look at
theories of learning and aspects of atypical language development
respectively.
