Title: Ruth Millikan
How Children Learn Language without a Theory of Mind
If we adopt a certain view of language understanding, and have a
flexible enough view of the different ways in which one mind can take
account of another, it becomes clear that a child can get exceedingly far
in learning language without having any theories or thoughts about other
people's minds. The radical part here is the proposed view of language
understanding. Interpreting what you hear through the medium of speech
sounds is in relevant ways just like interpreting what you see through the
medium of the structured light that strikes your eyes. Understanding speech
is a form of perception of the world, as direct as seeing.
