89. Wug w/ Jean Berko Gleason
Manage episode 413864388 series 3531545
This week, Kyle and Emily sit down with renowned psycholinguist Jean Berko Gleason to talk about wugs, wuggies, zibmen, and what they mean for child psychology.
They discuss the Wug Test, and what it can tell us about how a child, toddler, or even baby progresses in language development. They talk about what this test has meant for early childhood education and our understanding of early learning and child development.
But this episode isn’t all about baby talk and learning English. They also talk about the psychology of language learning and native versus non native languages. And, of course, it wouldn’t be Butter No Parsnips if we didn’t chat about etymology and linguistics.
Join us every week as we explore the fascinating origins and meanings of words, uncovering the hidden stories behind language and how it evolves over time, for language enthusiasts and etymology buffs alike.
