I advance the hypothesis that the earliest phases of language acquisition -- the developmental transition from an initial universal state of language processing to one that is language-specific -- requires social interaction. Relating human language learning to a broader set of neurobiological cases of communicative development, I argue that the social brain 'gates' the computational mechanisms involved in human language learning.
语言习得的最初阶段——即从语言处理的初始通用状态到特定语言状态的发展转变——需要社会互动。将人类语言学习与更广泛的一系列神经生物学交流发展案例联系起来，我认为社会大脑“控制”着人类语言学习中涉及的计算机制。
