Language Is Our Music - Paperback
Yo Sakakibara sets forth his revolutionary ideas about language acquisition, from
charming anecdotal stories of language acquisition in children to the scientific
investigation of vowel sounds; from meditations on musical scales to a philosophical
examination of what it means to be human. Sakakibara's theories have been put into
action at LEX / Hippo Family Club language clubs where members of all ages sing the
sounds of language to acquire multiple languages in a natural, fun, supportive,
immersion-style environment. Foreword by Dr. Suzanne Flynn, MIT Professor of
Linguistics and Language Acquisition.
“I am delighted to learn of the exciting developments in your work and the enormous
progress since I had the pleasure of witnessing some of the early steps in this
remarkable program.”
-Dr. Noam Chomsky
Institute Professor and Professor of Linguistics at MIT
