What role does an infant's attention to facial expressions play in his or her understanding of language?

We can figure out a lot based on microexpressions like their emotions or if they're lieing or not. so learning those as a infant will help in understanding how to communicate with someone and understand how to act based on their facial expression... like if a baby laughs which causes the person to smile, they'll learn that laughing will cause that reaction..

that make sense?

True your body needs vitamins such as protein, vitamin d, fish oil etc
