DEB ROY
(Most modern child language acquisition reseach)
Horizon - why do we talk?
Language - defines us, distinquishes us, how we learn to talk remains a mystery.
Experiment -
filmed his first child 24/7 learning to speak from moment born until 3 years old.
'speech home project'
Babbling...single words... two word stage... complex.
Trait of parent = unconsciously simplified speech
Parent mirrors childs development
cooing and babbling is essential to language development

On average;

They learn 3000 new words a year from there.
Adults speak roughly 5000 words per day.
