Language Development Quotes

• El desarrollo del lenguaje, por ejemplo, tiene un periodo crítico que empieza en la infancia y termina entre los ocho años y la pubertad. Una vez concluido este periodo crítico, la capacidad de una persona para aprender una segunda lengua sin acento es limitada. De hecho, las segundas lenguas aprendidas después del periodo crítico no se procesan en la misma parte del cerebro que la lengua materna.

• At each stage of development the child needs different resources from the family. During the first year, a variety of experience and the availability of the parents for attachment are primary. During the second and third years, stimulation of language development is critical. During the years prior to school entrance, information that persuades children they are loved becomes critical, and during the school years it is important for children to believe that they can succeed at the tasks they want to master.

• One way to think about what psychedelics are is as catalysts for language development. They literally force the evolution of language. You cannot evolve faster than your language because the language defines the culture of meaning. So if there's a way to accelerate the evolution of language then this is real consciousness expansion and it's a permanent thing. The great legacies of the 60's are in attitudes and language. It boils down to doing your own thing, feeling the vibe, ego-trip, blowing your mind.

• The worst of this sorry bunch of semi-educated losers are those who seem to glory in being irritated by nouns becoming verbs. How dense and deaf to language development do you have to be? If you don’t like nouns becoming verbs, then for heaven’s sake avoid Shakespeare who made a doing-word out of a thing-word every chance he got. He TABLED the motion and CHAIRED the meeting in which nouns were made verbs

• Me di cuenta con pena de que las actividades sin propósito en lengua y literatura son probablemente el cementerio del desarrollo lingüístico y que en la mayoría de las aulas, incluida la mía, se pueden encontrar ataúdes.
