Did you know that children’s language learning occurs along two interconnected pathways? Receptive language - which develops earliest - is the ability to comprehend (incoming) spoken language, while expressive language (outgoing) relates to a child’s ability to communicate his/her thoughts. One important thing for parents to note about receptive... language is this: Children are always listening and learning. Always. Even before you might think they are. So choose the language they are exposed to - both in person and via media - very carefully. (Remember too that the things you say to - and about - your child may well become the things they say to/about themselves.) This mom knows the way. Loving her sweet affirmation and her son’s adorable reaction. 🎥 lei.plummer IGshow more

Also remember things you say about YOURSELF. Hearing our mothers say things like “I’m fat” “I hate my curly hair” “I feel ugly” make littles (especially girls mimicking our moms) look at themselves in unflattering light. Bc if mom hates her curly hair I should hate mine too

Also kiddos are open & ready for bilingual & multilingual equally. it is a falsehood if a doctor tells ELL families otherwise.

Thank you🙏Yes,this is so true 😊 My 6 month old grand communicates what she needs,so effectively with her Expressions, Sounds and Body language, I am amazed. It takes us a little while sometimes to figure out, but her instant gratification when we do, is also equally telling ❤️

I started explaining the world to my kids, from the time they were born. I talked to them and I talked about everything I was doing, we were doing, as if thinking out loud. It really paid off.

I want to thank you for uplifting the discourse on twitter! I wish you would share this content on instagram. That's where all of the young parents I know look at content.

She’s singing her own version of frere jacques. I’m a huge believer in the value of nursery rhymes not only for their musicality but for language/reading development & social/emotional connection.

Your baby understands language well before they can use it. Watch the reaction of these sweet toddler twins as their mother breaks into song. It’s not just that mom is singing. They seem to be lighting up in anticipation of its chorus: I LOVE YOU. Watch the little one on the right - whose eyebrows raise in anticipation of this loving message from their mother. It’s a fantastic reminder that receptive language (what we can hear and understand) precedes expressive language (what we can verbalize). And an important reminder not to forget that children understand the language spoken around them well before they can verbalize it themselves. The best rule of thumb: never assume your child is “too young to understand.” This sweet duo was shared to IG by babyjoyreels.

Your baby understands more than you might think. And this is especially true when it comes to language. I’ve written extensively over the years about the gulf between receptive language (that which we understand) and expressive language (that which we can speak), but I’m not sure I’ve ever seen any better illustration than this fantastic video, shared with me by Phoebe Arslanagić-Little. In it, her 10-month-old daughter - whose current expressive language is limited mostly to “dada” - correctly identifies 8 African animals, none of which are yet a part of her spoken vocabulary. It’s an amazing illustration of the order in which we acquire language (receptive before expressive) and a powerful reminder that our little ones are taking in the world more extensively than we sometime give them credit for. (This can cut both ways, incidentally, so never assume they aren’t taking in adult content/discussions just because they’re too little. Once that expressive language catches up you might be surprised to discover just how extensive their adult vocabulary can be. 😃). And kudos to grandma, who enabled this - not by drilling our hero on animal names, but by narrating their joint playtimes. Just fantastic!

“That’s not nice. That’s not good…” Let’s talk about the role of language in shaping our thinking. We often think of language development in terms of a child’s ability to communicate with others. But it also plays a transformative role in cognition, helping us to communicate with ourselves and regulate our emotions. In time, language shapes not only what we know and say, but how we think and feel. During the years of early childhood, the acquisition of language revolutionizes young children’s approach to the world. They go from being unable to express their needs and feelings (a frustration that leads to things like crying to biting), to using language to process, communicate and regulate their behavior/emotions. And what a lovely example we have here. Marleigh’s dog Zoey has ripped apart (“eaten”) her stuffed Mickey Mouse toy. Watch how she (with some adult support) uses language to process her frustration and confront the dog. The developing 🧠 at work. Have you seen your child use language to help regulate their feelings (of frustration or otherwise)? 🎥 theyeetbaby IG (which is a great follow)

The way you speak to your child is the way they will learn to speak to others. And to themself. It’s not by accident that this little one, shared to IG by alysenovo, is brimming with confidence in her ability to take on a challenge. Listen to her self talk: “I did it!” “Good job!” “Awesome.” This isn’t language she’s concocted on her own. It’s the kind of language modeled by her parents as part of a key life lesson: You are capable. That doesn’t mean unending - or empty - praise. But it does mean that when you demonstrate your own belief in your child’s abilities, they’re likely to internalize it. “You can do it” becomes “I can do it.” Choose your words with the knowledge that your voice will echo as your child’s own.

Your child is always watching. Listening. Learning. And they want nothing more than to be like you. Check out this little guy who’s joined his dad for a little jog, which he’s decided is the key to becoming muscular like his father… even pausing mid-run to check whether “bumps” have developed on his arms. Sometimes it’s tempting to believe children are too young to notice the language we use and the behaviors we demonstrate. But they aren’t… even as infants and toddlers. They are always watching, listening, and learning. It’s a big responsibility. So be the role model you aspire to be. This amazing father-son duo was shared to IG by weatherford5.

“The ability to produce and comprehend spoken language is one of the earliest predictors of literacy achievement.” (National Early Literacy Panel, 2008) Research consistently indicates that strong oral langage skills are essential for reading and writing proficiency. That’s why I provide intensive, small group remediation for Kinder students who do not come to school with these foundational skills. We need to build students’ receptive (input) AND expressive (output) language skills AND intervene as early as possible to prevent learning gaps from widening. #Articulation #Speech The Reading League Tiffany Hogan

Infants are the world’s most accomplished language learners. As the process unfolds, children pass through stages of progressively more complex “babbling” before they begin using conventional words. But babbling isn’t limited to spoken language. Deaf children and the children of deaf parents pass through similar stages as they approximate the use of sign language - which brings us to this video, shared to IG by oursignedworld. Watch how locked in this little guy is as he “speaks” with his deaf father, observing dad’s sign language and then “babbling” back with his arms and hands. In time he will become both an accomplished signer and speaker. What a lovely example of language acquisition in process.

Demis on why world models are his longest standing passion and explains benefits vs. language models: ▫️ “I think language models are able to understand a lot about the world. More than we expected because language is actually probably richer than we thought. But there's still a lot about the spatial dynamics of the world, spatial awareness and the physical context we're in — and how that works mechanically — that is hard to describe in words and isn't generally described in corpuses of words. Alot of this is allied to learning from experience. There's a lot of things which you can't really describe something. You have to just experience it. Maybe the senses and so on are very hard to put into words. Whether that's motor angles and smell and these kinds of senses, it's very difficult to describe that in any kind of language.”▫️

Let’s talk about language-rich environments. One of the determining factors in both the speed at which your child develops language and the size of his/her early vocabulary is exposure to (direct & interactive) caregiver speech. Even before your baby is using language conventionally, he/she is soaking up all of yours. (And I do mean ALL… keep it G-rated.) One way to support your baby’s language/brain development is to narrate your life together. (Engage your child by talking about the steps you’re taking as you fold the laundry, for example. Or describe what you’ve received as you sort through the mail.) This grandpa gets a gold star here - not only narrating, but turning the simple act of rolling a ball back and forth into a thrilling TV sports play-by-play that includes the baby’s name and actions over and over. What a lucky little guy to be so immersed in language. He’ll be better off for it… just you wait and see! What strategies have you used to ensure your child is surrounded by interactive talk? 🎥 Kesler.Brian IG

Good to see that some sensible, modest girls exist too. She asked - Why are the protests demanding the release of Umar Khalid? She also asked - What about the many policemen who got hurt? Also, notice how her dress and language make her beautiful. While ugly hippos wearing short clothes and using abusive language think they are cool.

#WATCH | Delhi | On the abusive language used by him for rebel MPs, Shiv Sena UBT MP Sanjay Raut says, "We use such words in Marathi language. What is wrong in it? I very well know which language to use and when. Only a language which a person understands must be used. I have not used this language in the Parliament. What will you say about a person who leaves a party by accepting Rs 15 crores? Will you shower flower petals on such a person?"

Prepare to be dazzled. Young children are the world’s most efficient language learners - and easily master the challenge of bilingualism in supportive settings. Check out little Sam here as he switches back and forth seamlessly between Polish (the native language of his mother) and English (his father). Research suggests that bilingual/multilingual infants readily distinguish between the languages to which they are exposed, without any evidence of confusion. They are adept at recognizing the unique rhythms associated with each language - and can even visually discriminate between the unique (and often subtle) facial movements associated with different languages. Contrast this with the challenge of language learning as adults. How many of us took a foreign language in high school or college but cannot even begin to claim Sam’s level of fluency? 🎥 babysamanddad TT

From 1 May, Maharashtra is applying a rule of knowing basic Marathi on Auto and Taxi drivers in state. They will go to a registration centre to read, write, and speak Marathi. I support it. While some might feel this is outrageous and unions are deciding to protest, it is not really a high expectation. I don’t understand how you never tried to learn the language while working in Maharashtra for decades. Most signboards are in Marathi, you meet Marathi speaking people daily, you just catch the language naturally. You have to be stubborn to not to use it. While I support this language requirement for auto & taxi drivers, I would also like to see it applied in corporate & other jobs as they are the ones who are most ignorant for the language. Just add some more days for learning how to write. Marathis love the literature. Most people I know have read some poet or some writer. Many of them love to write on their own. The language sentiment comes from this love for literature. They cannot see it perish and we must respect it. Jai Maharashtra!
