WELCOME TO THE UCLA LANGUAGE LAB!!

We are interested in studying how infants tune into their native language and how children eventually develop the ability to produce grammatical sentences.  To do this we study perception and production abilities at various ages, from 0 - 5 years.  We want to find out how the speech perception abilities of children account for the pattern of gradual acquisition of grammar.  We have a special interest in figuring out how children simultaneously acquire two languages.  Currently that research is focused on Spanish/English bilingual learning babies.  If you know a child between the ages of 0 – 12 who is learning both Spanish and English, we would love to meet them!
