Sometime before their second birthday, many children have a period of rapid expressive vocabulary growth called the vocabulary spurt. Theories of the underlying mechanisms differ: Accumulator models emphasize the accumulation of experience with words over time to yield a spurtlike pattern, while cognitive models attribute the spurt to cognitive…

We ask whether the impact of syntactic and semantic properties on verb vocabulary development varies with age and language ability for toddlers…

The aim of this study is to analyse verbal repetition sequences that are extended by children and adults participating in turns. We…
