  1. I've always heard that children acquiring #English don't employ multiple strategies to inflect the same word. For example, they don't use both the irregular and regular rule for #inflecting a verb for past tense. However, 7yoB (and maybe 7yoA) always use *sawn* /sɑn/ as the past participle of *see*. What's going on? Is she just using the past form as a base for the past participle?
