• children's cognitive development determines their language
development
• interaction between the child + things which can be

Mama eat Cat bad
My car

10. Telegraphic Speech (2 - 2 1/2 years)
Adding new lexical elements to form more complex utterances
Dad on car

11. Terms in First Language Acquisition

Overextension
Caregiver speech

every case.
Child takes the name of an object/person and
