Indistinguishable from Jesse

I'm taking a Pomona class called Acquisition of Language. Here are some notes from the first day:

Why study acquisition of language?

• Lets you see mechanisms behind language.
• You can see dramatic changes over short periods of time. For example, most kids start having real conversations around 3 and a half.
• Kids are cute.

I like this class.
