In this first episode of Beyond Words, Garrett Oyama, MS, CCC-SLP, speaks with Jenny Saffran, PhD, about the remarkable ways babies begin learning language—long before they speak their first word. Together, they explore how infants use statistical learning to find patterns in speech, what fetuses may absorb in the womb, and how babies begin to recognize phonetic contrasts despite the seamless stream of spoken language. The conversation also touches on the “poverty of the stimulus” and how physical context can support early learning. This episode offers essential insights for speech-language pathologists working with infants, toddlers, and families.
