25
Language growth: toddlers typically exhibit large gains in ? language growth is impacted by ?
receptive and expressive lexicons SES and by language exposure
26
Toddler Milestones: Gestures gesture precede gesture use grows in transition from ? and from? as children with normal hearing age, they become less reliant on ? and more reliant on?
verbal language prelinguistic to linguistic stages/ 1 word to 2 word combinations gestures/ spoken words
27
Gesture types: deictic gestures: -meaning changes depending on -characterize referential gestures: reference a specific ? -more ? shares some properties with ? signals impending transition from ?
context/situation infancy object or action across different contexts/situations -advanced/ words/ prelinguistic to linguistic comm.
28

gesture + single word gesture+ gesture fade out vocab size at 42 months
29

Toddler lexical acquisiton: how do children ? to which referent does this ? (also called the ? ) possible explanations: - - -
learn new words word belong (mapping problem/ Quinean conundrum/ induction problem) lexical principles framework social -pragmatic framework fast mapping
34

overly general manner - categorical (cat used for all 4 legged animals) - analogical (ball used for all round objects) - relational (baby used for crib bottle etc) subset of appropriate referents - cat used only for the family's cat overextensions are noted in some contexts and underextensions in other contexts
