As such they can shed important light on issues of language development across the lifespan. This volume, originally published as a Special Issue of Gesture Volume 8:2 (2008), brings together studies from different disciplines that examine language development in children and adults from varying perspectives. It provides a review of common theoretical and empirical themes, and the contributions address topics such as gesture use in prelinguistic infants, the relationship between gestures and lexical development in typically and atypically developing children and in second language learners, what gestures reveal about discourse, and how all languages that adult second language speakers know can influence each other. The papers exemplify a vibrant new field of study with relevance for multiple disciplines. 410 0$aBenjamins current topics ;$vv. 28. 606 $aCommunicative competence in children 606 $aLanguage acquisition 606 $aGesture 606 $aSemantics 606 $aNonverbal communication 615 0$aCommunicative competence in children. 615 0$aLanguage acquisition. 615 0$aGesture. 615 0$aSemantics. 615 0$aNonverbal communication. 676 $a401/.93 701 $aGullberg$b Marianne$0732395 701 $aDe Bot$b Kees$01612092 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910822955203321 996 $aGestures in language development$94091927 997 $aUNINA
