The six-month period following the first use of words by Jessie L. was dominated by two one-word utterances, cat and mama. A near-total record of her use of these words, along with several minor lexical items, is the basis of a detailed analysis of her acquisition of phonetic and phonological capacities. The apparent plateau of the second year is a site of intensive language-learning, which is not reflected in the growth of vocabulary or mean length of utterance.

Examining Gordon & Lakoff's influential article (1971) on conversational postulates, this paper shows that the term postulate is misleading; that G&L's concept of conversational implicature as a case of entailment is mistaken; and that their view of the interaction of conversational implicature and syntactic rules is based on an incorrect analysis. It is suggested that some of the problems in their paper stem from a pernicious ambiguity of the phrase ‘can convey’.
