This project aims to explain how children's speech processing adapts to cultural and linguistic diversity and how such adaptation may seed sound change in language. Using acoustic and articulatory (ultrasound) methods, the project intends to explain how children rapidly and authentically acquire the intricately nuanced accents of their communities. The project aims to advance theories of language variation and change by providing new insights into the forces that shape the sounds of language. An understanding of how children's speech patterns develop and ultimately converge to local norms has implications for the social integration of second language learning children and refugee/asylum seekers, and for clinical and speech technology applications for children.

这个项目旨在解释儿童的言语处理如何适应文化和语言的多样性，以及这种适应如何在语言中产生声音变化。使用声学和发音（超声波）方法，该项目旨在解释儿童如何快速，真实地获得他们社区的错综复杂的细微差别的口音。该项目旨在通过对塑造语言声音的力量提供新的见解来推进语言变异和变化的理论。了解儿童的言语模式如何发展并最终趋同于当地规范，对第二语言学习儿童和难民/寻求庇护者的社会融合以及儿童的临床和语音技术应用具有重要意义。
