First language acquisition refers to how children learn their native language. Studies of language acquisition began in the 1950s when Chomsky proposed the idea of an innate language acquisition device that allows children to learn language quickly and easily. Children progress through distinct stages of language acquisition, starting with babbling and one-word utterances and advancing to two-word combinations and telegraphic speech as they learn grammar and vocabulary.
