Soliciting questions for BUCLD debate between Stephen Crain and Michael
Tomasello:
''Where does grammar come from? A debate on the nature of child
language acquisition''
This year's Boston University Conference on Language Development (Nov.
5-7) will feature a 2-hour debate between Stephen Crain and Michael
Tomasello entitled: ''Where does grammar come from? A debate on the
nature of child language acquisition.'' The speakers will first present their
own positions on this question, and then respond to each other's positions.
During the last half hour or so, they will respond to questions submitted
in advance by you, members of the language development community. So I'm
writing now to solicit your questions. Any questions are welcome,
representing any theoretical perspective or about any topic relevant to the
debate. So here's your chance to ask that question that's always been
bothering you, or that you could never understand, or that you just want to
know about.
Please send any and all questions to Seungwan Ha at
langconf@bu.eduby October 15, 2004.
