“…Studies have shown multiple differences between the speech addressed to child and adult interlocutors, providing clear evidence that CDS is a separate speech mode, distinct from ADS (e.g., Snow, 1972;Ferguson, 1978;Ringler, 1981;Gallaway and Richards, 1994;Foulkes et al, 2005). Adults adapt their speech addressed to children in numerous ways including structured repetition (Küntay and Slobin, 1996;Lester et al, 2022), exaggerated articulation (Lindblom, 1990;Minjung and Stoel-Gammon, 2005;Green et al, 2010) and prosody (Fernald and Simon, 1984;McLeod, 1993), syntactic and lexical simplification (Fernald and Morikawa, 1993;Kunert et al, 2011), and a large emphasis on interaction (Hoff and Naigles, 2002). Numerous studies also show that CDS is preferred by children (Fernald, 1985;Schachner and Hannon, 2011;Masapollo et al, 2016).…”
