词汇学习看似很难，但蹒跚学步的孩子往往让它看起来很容易。此前的理论认为，儿童对单词的快速习得是基于特定语言知识和限制的。相比之下，最近的工作集中在这样一种观点上，即单词学习是通过调整丰富的结构化而不是重复的输入来进行的。我们认为，新的理论见解，再加上方法论工具，推动了该领域的赞赏简单的，contentfree的过程一起工作，作为一个系统，以支持收购的话。我们通过考虑早期语言发展的三个中心现象来说明这一点：指称歧义，快速映射和词汇激增。(C)2016 Wiley Periodicals，Inc.
Vocabulary learning is deceptively hard, but toddlers often make it look easy. Prior theories proposed that children's rapid acquisition of words is based on languagespecific knowledge and constraints. In contrast, more recent work converges on the view that word learning proceeds via domaingeneral processes that are tuned to richly structurednot impoverishedinput. We argue that new theoretical insights, coupled with methodological tools, have pushed the field toward an appreciation of simple, contentfree processes working together as a system to support the acquisition of words. We illustrate this by considering three central phenomena of early language development: referential ambiguity, fastmapping, and the vocabulary spurt. (C) 2016 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.
