发声学习是指通过听觉信息对发声输出的修正。它允许模仿和即兴创作的声音，否则不会发生。这种技能的出现可能是人类语言进化的主要步骤，但发声学习并不是人类独有的。它也发生在鸣禽中，在那里它的生物学可以更容易地研究。以下是一些显着的解剖学，发育和声乐学习的行为特征，以及鸣禽和人类的声乐学习之间的相似之处和差异的评论。
Vocal learning is the modification of vocal output by reference to auditory information. It allows for the imitation and improvisation of sounds that otherwise would not occur. The emergence of this skill may have been a primary step in the evolution of human language, but vocal learning is not unique to humans. It also occurs in songbirds, where its biology can be studied with greater ease. What follows is a review of some of the salient anatomical, developmental, and behavioral features of vocal learning, alongside parallels and differences between vocal learning in songbirds and humans.
