THINKING
Jerome Bruner's Theory
http://www.theoryfundamentals.com/bruner.htm
It is through language that we learn about objects
and how to understand them. For people at the
symbolic stage language is also the basis of our
thought. Because language is so vital to our
thought process if we do not have the word for a
concept then according to Bruner we don't fully
understand that concept. In this sense our
language shapes to a large extent what we are able
to learn and know.

BRAIN ACTIVITY REVEALS L1
Acquisition of native language takes place together
with the acquisition of conceptual knowledge,
sensory experience, and regulations, which affect
our brain forever.
