ABSTRACT
This article addresses the autonomy hypothesis of vocabulary and grammar bootstrapping mechanisms in early language development. Two birth cohorts 1,505 1,049 same‐sex twin pairs from UK were assessed at 2 3 years on vocabulary, using adapted versions MacArthur Communicative Development Inventory. Vocabulary correlate strongly both cohorts. Multivariate genetic modeling reveals a consistently high correlation between years. finding suggests same influences operate for grammar, incompatible with traditional hypothesis, least acquisition. Cross‐lagged longitudinal models indicate lexical syntactical to
