评估是否域一般的机制可以解释语言习得需要确定是否在儿童导向语音（CDS）的表面线索之间的统计相似性是足够的，以诱导深层的句法和语义结构。本文报道了一个案例研究的关系代词的使用在CDS，一方面，广泛的动词类，另一方面。语料库分析显示，统计学上的代词和动词之间的共现在CDS，可以提示物理与心理动词。一个模拟实验表明，一个简单的统计学习者可以获得这些信息，并利用它们激活动词，是不完整的话语在简单的句法框架一致。因此，在这种情况下，表面语义信息足以归纳出广泛的语义类别。孩子们可能会使用这些代词/动词共现来帮助学习动词，尽管他们是否真的这样做仍然是一个正在进行的研究课题。
Assessing whether domain-general mechanisms could account for language acquisition requires determining whether statistical regularities among surface cues in child directed speech (CDS) are sufficient for inducing deep syntactic and semantic structure. This paper reports a case study on the relation between pronoun usage in CDS, on the one hand, and broad verb classes, on the other. A corpus analysis reveals statistical regularities in co-occurrences between pronouns and verbs in CDS that could cue physical versus psychological verbs. A simulation demonstrates that a simple statistical learner can acquire these regularities and exploit them to activate verbs that are consistent with incomplete utterances in simple syntactic frames. Thus, in this case, surface regularities are sufficiently informative for inducing broad semantic categories. Children might use these regularities in pronoun/verb co-occurrences to help learn verbs, although whether they actually do so remains a topic of ongoing research.
