- New Study Examines the Vocabulary Networks of Six-Month-Old Babies -- The Scout Report, November 24, 2017, Volume 23, Number 47
"A new study published in the Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences on Monday suggests that six-month-old babies have already formed vocabulary networks, recognizing that certain words have similar meanings. In this study, conducted by Duke University psychologist Elika Bergelson and University of Rochester psychologist Richard Aslin, 51 six-month-old babies were shown a series of two images next to each other. Each image depicted a simple noun that would be recognizable to the baby. As babies were shown each pair, their parents said a sentence that included one of the two nouns, and researchers watched to see how the baby would respond. The team found that when given two images with distinct meanings (such as a bottle and a nose) babies focused on the image that correlated with the word they heard. However, when given the image of two objects with related meanings (such as a mouth and a nose), babies were more likely to look at the wrong image. Earlier studies have illustrated that toddlers and older children (as well as adults) have vocabulary networks, and this study suggests that babies may start to form such networks very early in life.

The first three links take readers to summaries of this new research, authored by Rachel Gutman of The Atlantic, Nicola Davis of The Guardian and Laura Sanders of Science News's Growth Curve Blog. The other three links offer readers a glimpse into other research efforts regarding children's language acquisition. In a short video for Big Think, psychologist and linguist Steven Pinker explains the concept of "universal grammar" in young children. The next link is a 2010 TED Talk by Patricia Kuhl, Professor of Speech and Hearing Sciences at the University of Washington, which explores how babies under one develop the "statistics of language" by distinguishing between different sounds. As her talk explains, the statistics of language help explain why babies and young children can absorb multiple languages with greater ease than adults. Finally, the last link takes readers to a 2011 lecture by Barbara Lust about her research into children's language acquisition. Lust is a professor at Cornell University's College of Human Ecology, and her talk is made available courtesy of the university's CornellCast." -- The Scout Report, November 24, 2017, Volume 23, Number 47

["The Allusionist is a delightful podcast dedicated to "small adventures in language." Hosted by British broadcaster and podcaster Helen Zaltzman, the Allusionist covers a single issue related to the English language in each twenty minute podcast. Zaltzman is especially interested in issues of how language and society inform one another. One recent episode features an interview with Isaac Siemens on the reasons why scientists are looking to rename diseases that are currently eponyms. In another episode, Zaltzman and a panel of guests discuss the practice of naming generations (e.g. Generation X, Millennial, Baby Boomers) and the relative merits and drawbacks of these labels. New episodes of the Allusionist are released bimonthly. Interested listeners can explore current and past episodes, along with related links and resources, on this website."] -- MMB, The Scout Report, November 18, 2016, Volume 22, Number 45
