This project investigates how children and adults use social-contextual cues to interpret language, focusing on the development of common ground. By combining behavioral experiments with mathematical modeling, it aims to enhance understanding of language learning processes across different ages.
Language is inherently ambiguous.
The meaning of words and sentences depends on the identity of the communicative partners and the nature of the context.
In simple behavioral experiments children and adults can use a wide variety of social-contextual cues (jointly known as “common ground”) to interpret ambiguous utterances.
