1. Valency 1.1 Linguistic approaches to valency and syntactic structure 1.2 Implication for acquisition: syntax is simple 1.3 Developmental evidence: the earliest word combinations are syntactic mergers 1.4 Conclusions: children learn to merge two words according to their valency 2. The learning curve 2.1 The learning curve in cognitive psychology 2.2 Implication for acquisition: syntax should transfer right away 2.3 Developmental evidence: learning curves and generalizations in early syntax 2.4 Conclusions: lexical-specific syntactic frames facilitate others 3. Lexicalism 3.1 The linguistic basis to lexicalism 3.2 Implication for acquisition: no abstract schema formation 3.3 Developmental evidence: no change in the form of syntactic schemas 3.4 Conclusions: children learn a lexicalist syntax 4. Similarity 4.1 Similarity for transfer and generalization 4.2 Implication for acquisition: no role for semantic linking in learning syntax 4.3 Developmental evidence: no semantic effects in generalization and transfer 4.4 Conclusions: children utilize similarity of form to organize the process of acquisition 5. The growth of syntax 5.1 The language web 5.2 Implication for acquisition: learning means linking to the network 5.3 Developmental evidence: children recreate the global features of the maternal network 5.4 Conclusions: children join the language network
