Abstract

Research on lesser studied languages is vital for the advancement of theories of language acquisition. We discuss two areas where data from Eegimaa have the potential to produce innovative research: (1) language typology, with an overview of the complex demonstratives found in this language, and (2) learning environment and input speech. Here, we show that Eegimaa children learn to speak in a polyadic environment, where they receive input from multiple caregivers, siblings and other members of their community.

对研究较少的语言的研究对于语言习得理论的发展至关重要。我们讨论了Eegimaa的数据有可能产生创新研究的两个领域：（1）语言类型学，概述该语言中发现的复杂指示词，以及（2）学习环境和输入语音。在这里，我们展示了Eegimaa儿童在多元环境中学习说话，在那里他们从多个照顾者、兄弟姐妹和社区其他成员那里获得意见。
