This book presents new research in the field of language
acquisition and development. The contributors pay attention to
first language development and other language acquisition (second,
foreign and additional), and focus on issues directly relevant to
both areas of investigation. One of the main aims of the book is to
discover how research and practice in first language development
can contribute to the teaching and learning of other languages, and
vice versa. The book is distinctive in this area in its application
of theoretical findings to the development of principles,
objectives and procedures for language learning. This practical
focus can also be seen in the open-minded approach taken to the
interpretation of the evidence presented in the book. Rather than
setting out to prove any particular hypothesis, the book aims to
develop practical applications relating to the tendencies indicated
by the research. Language Acquisition and Development will be of
interest to postgraduates and academics researching language
acquisition, language development and applied linguistics and to
language teachers with an interest in language learning theory.
