Resource summary
Acquisition of the mother tongue in childhood
Psycholinguistics
is a comprehensive discipline
embraces many aspects of linguistic behavior
Psychology of language
studies the structures and processes in the use of language and speech
Language acquisition
is the process by which humans acquire the capacity to perceive and comprehend language
developmental psycholinguistics examines
How speech emerges over time
How children go about constructing the complex structures of their mother tongue
Children are a focus of attention and affection in all societies
Crying stage
crying is not only communicative
it is also a direct precursor to both language and speech
Human symbolic communication
crying is a direct preparation for a lifetime of vocal communication
Spoken language
crying helps learning to produce linguistic sounds
Cooing stage
the child starts to coo
making soft gurgling sounds to express satisfaction
Babbling stage
refers to the natural tendency of children about two months of age to burst out in strings of consonant-vowel syllable clusters
Some psycholinguists distinguish between
Marginal babbling
an early stage similar to coving where infants produce a few consonants
Canonical babbling
usually emerges at around eight months
the child's vocalizations narrow down to syllables that begin to approximate the syllables of the caretaker's language
First words
a child crosses this linguistic Rubicon at about one year old
it seems that children often use idiomorphs
words they invent when they first catch on to the magical notion that certain sounds have a unique reference
A survey of the words children first learn to say shows that they tend to be those which refers to prominent everyday objects
things that can be manipulated by the child
Holophrastic stage
is the use of single words as skeletal sentences
complex ideas are sometimes expressed with single word
accompanied by gestures
holophrastic speech is the bridge which transports the child from the primitive land of cries, words, and names
across into the brave new world of phrases, clauses, and sentences
all children begin to create sentences after the holophrastic stage
first with two words and subsequently with more
children progress through different stages of grammatical development
measured largely by the average number of words occurring per utterance
Child language acquisition
a child's linguistic surroundings determine its mother tongue
Children are prone to come up with all kinds of words and expressions which they have never heard in their mono- or bilingual environments
Children creatively construct their grammars based on what they have learned
