Item Developing vocabulary in children(CEDER, Texas A&M University-Corpus Christi, 2003) Cassidy, Drew; Garcia, Robert; Olmos, Rick; Swift, Catherine; Garrett, Sherrye; Marroquin, Christine; Peltz, RichardWords seem like such ordinary things, and most of us take them for granted. We carry on conversations without particularly being aware of the words we are speaking and hearing. We rarely stop to think about how we choose the words we use or how we assign meanings to the words we hear. We seem to use words automatically, but words are not as simple as they seem. The complexities of vocabulary are an endless source of intrigue to language scholars, teachers, poets, and authors.
