This visualization explores vocabulary development in children, plotting both comprehension (words understood) and production (words spoken) across ages for 84,138 children from 38 countries. The data, sourced from the Wordbank Stanford study, is loaded via `csvParse` and rendered as a JSON object. The interactive view shows how the gap between these two measures changes over time and varies by language and sex, using D3 v7 for data binding and DOM manipulation.

Data dictionary:

  • 'language' - language that child learns. Categorical.
  • 'age' - child’s age. Quantitative.
  • 'comprehension' - how many words child can understand. Quantitative.
  • 'production' - how many words child says. Quantitative.
  • 'sex' - child’s sex. Categorical.
