TL;DR: This article explored the hypothesis that the short-term phonological storage component of working memory may play a role in the acquisition of vocabulary by young children and found that phonological memory score was highly correlated with vocabulary at both age 4 and age 5, in both cases accounting for a substantial and significant proportion of the variance when all other predictors are removed by stepwise regression.
