Catalogue summary
Ratings from 173 participants estimate when 299 nouns and verbs are learned in Western Armenian and six other languages, finding broadly comparable acquisition ages and ordering across 32 languages.
Why this matters
The shared instrument makes Western Armenian developmental vocabulary directly comparable with languages from several families and cultural settings.
