It’s no secret that children excel at learning languages. Every typically developing child acquires language with little special effort or adult help. Why are they so good at this? It is something about how they learn or how their brain is organized? And how do they navigate the complex world of grammar and syntax? In the Child Language Lab <https://t.e2ma.net/click/hf0vac/ph7chq/pxzlro>at Penn, Kathryn Schuler has been grappling with such questions, and she’ll discuss what she’s learned so far.
