The Late Development of Raising: What Children Seem to Think about Seem

Abstract

While it is clear that the study of language development contributes to linguistic theory, it is perhaps less widely recognized that by examining the time course of language development we can integrate the study of language into the broader study of biological development. The hope persists that this type of analysis will play a role in the genetic underpinnings of language, as it has already done in some areas of grammar.
