Children’s language development has only been studied fro a very small fraction of the world’s languages. This chapter provides a brief introduction to existing cross-linguistic research on morphological and syntactic development in young children learning oral languages. The final section addresses the important issue of differences in the communicative environments of children learning to talk and the possible implications of these differences.
