David Alton's bill to amend the Abortion Act, 1967, had its second reading in the House of Commons in January 1988. The bill proposed that the limit after which an abortion is illegal should be reduced from 28 weeks to 18 weeks. Most of the public discussion of the bill was centred on the moral issues involved, but the language in which this debate had been conducted prompted considerations of interest to the sociologists.

Abstract This chapter explores the understanding of language. It explains that the language system is sensitive to the knowledge of the world and the plausibility of different situations. Any major delays in communication could lead to a backlog of processing operations and an eventual breakdown in communication. The chapter then provides an overview of the McGurk Effect, wherein visual information from the speaker’s face also helps listeners overcome variability in speech sounds as it serves as an additional source of information. Moreover, psycholinguists have proposed several language understanding models, such as the Garden-Path model of human parsing, the Good Enough Language Processing model, and Parallel Constraint-Based models.
