When tested in the morning, and again in the evening, the babies who d heard the tricky boundary vowels all night showed brainwave activity indicating that they could now recognize this sound. They could identify the sound even when its pitch was changed, while none of the other babies could pick up the boundary vowel at all.
Cheour doesnt know how babies accomplish this nighttime learning, but she suspects that the special ability might indicate that unlike adults, babies dont turn off their cere-bral cortex while they sleep. The skill probably fades in the course of the first years of life, she adds - so forget the idea that you can pick up the tricky French vowels, as an adult just by slipping a language tape under your pillow. But while it may not help grown-ups, Cheour is hoping to use the sleeping hours to give remedial help to babies who are genetically at risk of. language disorders.
