“…When considering communicative gestures, direct links have been found between pointing and language, for both language comprehension and production (e.g., Colonnesi, Stams, Koster, & Noom, 2010; Iverson & Goldin‐Meadow, 2005; Rowe & Goldin‐Meadow, 2009; Salo, Reeb‐Sutherland, Frenkel, Bowman, & Rowe, 2019).
