Language Acquisition: The Basics is an accessible introduction to
the must-know issues in child language development. Covering key
topics drawn from contemporary psychology, linguistics and
neuroscience, readers are introduced to fundamental concepts,
methods, controversies, and discoveries. It follows the remarkable
journey children take; from becoming sensitive to language before
birth, to the time they string their first words together; from
when they use language playfully, to when they tell stories, hold
conversations, and share complex ideas. Using examples from 73
different languages, Ibbotson sets this development in a diverse
cross-cultural context, as well as describing the universal
psychological foundations that allow language to happen. This book,
which includes further reading suggestions in each chapter and a
glossary of key terms, is the perfect easy-to-understand
introductory text for students, teachers, clinicians or anyone with
an interest in language development. Drawing together the latest
research on typical, atypical and multilingual development, it is
the concise beginner's guide to the field.
