Abstract

The commentary amplifies Kidd and Garcia’s call for increased attention to language diversity in research on language acquisition by noting several implications of language diversity for acquisition theory and practice. An examination of the languages discussed in six recent articles on acquisition theory echos Kidd and Garcia’s observations on the inordinate role that better-studied languages play in acquisition research. Documenting the acquisition of 7,000 languages over the coming decade requires a new infrastructure for acquisition research. Sketches of child languages offer a community-based solution to processing bottlenecks and promote the use of indigenous languages.

探索语言多样性:基德和加西亚评论(2022)

这篇评论通过指出语言多样性对语言习得理论和实践的几个含义，放大了基德和加西亚关于在语言习得研究中增加对语言多样性的关注的呼吁。对最近六篇关于习得理论的文章中讨论的语言的研究与基德和加西亚的观察相呼应，基德和加西亚认为，研究得更好的语言在习得研究中发挥了过度的作用。记录未来十年7000种语言的习得需要一个新的习得研究基础设施。儿童语言草图为处理瓶颈提供了基于社区的解决方案，并促进了土著语言的使用。

Empirical papers range from individual case studies, through experiments, observational/ naturalistic, analyses of CHILDES corpora, to parental surveys.
