An interactionist view of language acquisition

Abstract

The language is the fundamental principle of human communication and the basis of society. Once acquired, we can move in the world and actively participate in it. Therefore, this paper aims to deploy a multidisciplinary perspective on language acquisition, based on the theory of social interactionism, as it converges with developmental psychology, social psychology and linguistics. This approach allows us to conceive the human being in its bio-psycho-social dimensions, prioritizing the context in which we develop, taking into account the influence of our peers.
