Abstract
The vocabulary spurt produced by eight infants was registered weekly during a 16-months period and analyzed. The verbal utterances of the infants were observed and recorded during everyday activities in natural surroundings. The results confirm the occurrence of vocabulary spurts in all the subjects. The children were divided into two groups, those of high production and those of low production. The differences in patterns of response were noted from the age of 27/28 months and suggest different word learning strategies in the two groups. The results support the apparent universality of the vocabulary spurt.
