David:

you wrote:

"But what do children do? Ontogenetically, word meanings develop in an 
empirical, factual manner; the links between meanings merely mirroring the 
links between objects. But until concepts can be related to OTHER 
concepts, rather than simply related to objects, conscious grammar cannot 
emerge." 

To make such a bold statement, IMHO, removes the goal orientated aspect of 
Vygotsky's triangle.  Does the relational aspect of concepts point towards 
problem solving?
