CLA (continued)
-
cruttenden
-
- initially they memorise words on an individual basis and have no understanding of those words
- begun to process and actively deduce the underlying principles for themselves they may seem to take a step backwards - less virtuous errors. this is called overgeneralisation
- in the stage, standard endings are applied,even the irregular inflectional endings are added
order or grammatical development: using verbs to lead them to put everything in the present tense. next = '-ing' present participle. next = 'ed' morpheme finally = auxiliaries
telegraphic stage - the developing grammar is evident here too in the same way but we see children focus on the content words than on the grammatical function words
-
- the content words carry more meaning and are therefore more useful to the child
- grammatical function words such as prepositions and articles may not be pronounced with the same emphasis as content words, so are harder to pick up
- the concepts behind such function words as 'in' 'on' and 'around' are quite subtle, whilst noun labels are easier
-
-
one-word stage - no evidence of grammatical awareness, though children can creatively use language for a range of functions
two-word stage - by applying brown's taxonomy we can see that there is a developing awareness of grammar - an embryonic manner. This is shown in syntax - children get the standard english word order
