An interactionist view of language
acquisition互动主义者的语言习得观
Example: wolf child;
（鹦鹉学舌）
The interactionist view holds that language
develops as a result of the complex interplay between the human
characteristics of the child and the environment in which the child
develops.
互动主义者认为语言的发展是儿童身上人类的特点是与儿童发展所在的环境之间复杂的相互作用的结果。
Caretaker speech:= motherese,
mother talk, baby talk保姆式语言：the simple speech
used by mothers, fathers, babysitters, etc. when they talk to young
children who are learning to
talk.父母亲、保姆等对学话幼儿所说的简单话语。
Caretaker speech usually has
保姆式语言通常具有以下特点。
1.
shorter utterances than speech to other
adults 语句较成人之间的对话简短。
2.
grammatically simple utterances
语法简单
3.
few abstract or difficult words, with a lot of
repetition极少有抽象或艰涩词汇。
4.
clearer pronunciation, sometimes with exaggerated
Intonation patterns
发音清晰，有时伴有夸张的语调。
Caretaker speech is easier for children to
understand, and many people believe that it helps children to learn
language.保姆式语言便于儿童理解，许多人认为这有助于儿童学习语言。
Conclusion: Behaviorists view sounds reasonable
in explaining the routine aspects, the innatist accounts most
plausible in explaining children’s acquiring complex system, and
the interactionist description convincing in understanding how
children learn and use the language appropriately from their
environment.行为主义者在解释常规方面听起来比较合理，语法天生主义者在解释儿童习得复杂的系统方面最具有说服力，而互动主义者的描写在理解儿童如何从其环境中学习和适当的运用语言方面令人信服。
