Extracted text: Children seem to require live social interactions with other people to acquire language. They do not learn simply by passively listening to a language on TV. What does this tell us about language development? O Direct feedback is required for language acquisition--that is the main thing missing from language presented over a TV. O Children don't get enough acoustic information from the TV audio to acquire phonology. Communication with other human beings is an essential motivating factor for language development. O watching TV is a learned behavior, not an innate one.
