Paperback. A language develops over time, it develops in a child, and the capacity for language has evolved in the human species. How and why do languages change over time? Could the way an individual child develops affect aggregate language change? What do the mechanisms of change tell us about the evolution of language in our species? This book asserts that a child develops a grammar on exposure to some triggering experience. Shipping may be from multiple locations in the US or from the UK, depending on stock availability.
