  1. The Problem Week I-Monday 1 knowledge of the world under standing (MIND) Speech sounds and understanding (matter and mind) are related by (a language specific) grammar and lexicon

  2. The Problem Week I-Monday 2 Speech sounds and understanding (matter and mind) are related by (a language specific) grammar and lexicon knowledge of the world under standing (MIND)

  3. The Problem Week I-Monday 3 Speech sounds and understanding (matter and mind) are related by (a language specific) grammar and lexicon knowledge of the world under standing (MIND) lexicon

  4. The Problem Week I-Monday 4 Speech sounds and understanding (matter and mind) are related by (a language specific) grammar and lexicon knowledge of the world under standing (MIND) lexicon cate- gories

  5. The Problem Week I-Monday 5 Speech sounds and understanding (matter and mind) are related by (a language specific) grammar and lexicon knowledge of the world under standing (MIND) lexicon phrases cate- gories

  6. The Problem Week I-Monday 6 Speech sounds and understanding (matter and mind) are related by (a language specific) grammar and lexicon knowledge of the world under standing (MIND) lexicon phrases cate- gories trans- forms

  7. The Problem Week I-Monday 7 Speech sounds and understanding (matter and mind) are related by (a language specific) grammar and lexicon knowledge of the world under standing (MIND) lexicon phrases repre- senta- tion cate- gories trans- forms

  8. The Problem Week I-Monday 8 Speech sounds and understanding (matter and mind) are related by (a language specific) grammar and lexicon knowledge of the world under standing (MIND) lexicon phrases repre- senta- tion cate- gories trans- forms BUT: By what procedure will the child build that mediating structure {parser, grammar, lexicon}?

  9. Paradox Week I-Monday 9 You do not hear word or phrase structure, unless you have a grammar BUT: The child does not have a grammar yet

  10. Trial and Error? Week I-Monday 10 If the learner had some piece of grammar out of the blue, he might try it BUT: There is no a priori language specific grammar

  11. Try All Grammars Week I-Monday 11 If there were a limited amount of a priori grammars, the learner might check them all BUT: The amount of grammars is astronomical, say 240

  12. Decision Week I-Monday 12 We need a procedure to derive grammar from speech sounds

  13. Proposal Week I-Monday 13 Let us listen to the children in order to reconstruct the acquisition hierarchy • Which properties do children pick up first, which later? • What enables children to find that hierarchy?

  14. Preview Week I-Monday 14 The learnability of : First week: Lexicon and stress Categories (± N , ±V) Second week: Phrases (IP, DP) Transforms (movements to C) Third week: Scope and anaphoric chains (pronouns/reflexives)

  15. Preview Week I-Monday 15 First week: a. the acquisition of word stress b. the acquisition of ± N, ± V

  16. Preview Week I-Monday 16 Second week: Underlying and derived structure

  17. Preview Week I-Monday 17 Third week: Anaphoric Chains
