A multi-modal, emergent view of the development of syllables in early phonology
Published online by Cambridge University Press: 01 August 1998
Abstract
A narrow focus on the jaw (or on motor generators) does not account for individual and language-specific differences in babbling and early speech. Furthermore, data from Yoshinaga-Itano's laboratory support earlier findings that show glottal rather than oral stops in deaf infants' babbling: audition is crucial for developing normal syllables.
