语言学习与发展(LL&D)是研究语言学习(包括婴儿期、儿童期和整个生命周期的语言学习)的学者和实践者之间广泛互动的载体;语言在典型和非典型人群中，在母语和第二语言学习中。LL&D欢迎寻求不同方法来理解语言习得的所有方面的学者，包括生物、社会和跨文化影响，并使用实验、观察、人种志、比较、神经科学和正式的调查方法。
Language Learning and Development (LL&D) serves as a vehicle for interaction among the broad community of scholars and practitioners who investigate language learning, including language learning in infancy, childhood, and across the lifespan; language in both typical and atypical populations and in both native- and second-language learning. LL&D welcomes scholars who pursue diverse approaches to understanding all aspects of language acquisition, including biological, social, and cross-cultural influences, and who employ experimental, observational, ethnographic, comparative, neuroscientific, and formal methods of investigation.
