Sinopsis

The crosslinguistic studies of the early developmental stages of number, case, and gender in twelve typologically different languages with eight genetic affiliations follow a functional-constructivist approach. Some issues addressed are mean size of paradigms, percentage of base forms, and productivity. One of the main findings is that the typological characteristics of the language acquired influence the process of inflectional development.

De la contraportada

This book is about the acquisition of the grammar of the noun in children's second and third years of life. The early development of fundamental linguistic distinctions in the universal category of the noun, namely singular vs. plural and nominative vs. accusative as well as other cases, is studied in monolingual children acquiring fourteen languages belonging to eight different language families found within and outside Europe: Germanic, Romance, Slavic/Baltic, Greek, Finnic, Turc, Semitic, and Indian American. One of the main findings of this cross-linguistic study is that children are highly sensitive to the morphological richness of their mother tongue already in the "proto-morphological" stage of development.
