Citations in the corpus

• Pointing Toward Two-Word Speech in Young Children (2003, methodology): “Butcher and Goldin-Meadow (2000) took this point to be the onset of gesture–speech integration in these children, the moment when gesture and speech become unified into a system characterized by both semantic and temporal coherence.”
• Gesture Paves the Way for Language Development (2005, background): “…offer children a technique for communicating two pieces of information within a single utterance before they can produce two-word utterances (e.g., point at cup while saying ‘‘mine’’; Butcher & Goldin-Meadow, 2000; Capirci, Iverson, Pizzuto, & Volterra, 1996; GoldinMeadow & Butcher, 2003).”
• Visible embodiment: Gestures as simulated action (2008, background): “Gesture and speech are originally two separate systems that develop into a single, integrated system in the early years (Butcher & Goldin-Meadow, 2000).”
