Welcome to the UBC Child Phonology Lab website! We are linguists, phonologists, acquisitionists, developmentalists, profs, students, postdocs and colleagues at the University of British Columbia, all studying aspects of language development and/or the grammar of speech production and perception, in children and adults learning (e.g.) English, French, Mandarin, Persian, Estonian, Akan, Dagaare, Hebrew, and many other languages. Our lab director is Anne-Michelle Tessier, Associate Professor of Linguistics. Please look around, learn about our work, the members of this lab, and if you have any questions or comments get in touch!
