N2  - "Language development is a fundamental process that begins early in life, with initial learning believed to occur in the utero, as fetuses are exposed to specific speech patterns and the sounds of the mother's voice. In children, receptive language skills typically emerge before expressive or verbal language abilities. The environment in which a child is raised plays a critical role in shaping language development, in order to provide the linguistic input necessary for cognitive processing. Language development spans multiple domains, including phonology, grammar, semantics, and pragmatics. This book is compiled in such a manner that it will provide in-depth knowledge about the theory and practice of language development. It explores all the important aspects of the discipline in the present day scenario. The book is appropriate for those seeking detailed information in this area"-- Back cover
