Abstract
In this paper, (i) we outline the role of imitation in modern speech and language; (ii) we review the evidence provided by experimental and modeling studies for the potential role of imitation in the emergence and evolution of phonological systems; and (iii) we discuss how the resulting hypotheses could be tested in the framework provided by the multi-agent computational COSMO model.
