As far as my field of study is concerned, I want to share a presentation from one of our study sources. This is for the benefit of those who are studying the language. :D
This document discusses the stages of child language acquisition. It begins with an introduction that outlines the talk map, including defining language and communication. It then explains the key stages of language development: pre-speech, babbling, one word, and early grammar. The pre-speech stage involves crying to express needs. During the babbling stage around 6 months, infants begin vocalizing sounds. In the one word stage, children use single words. Finally, the early grammar stage sees two-word sentences with simplified grammar. The conclusion emphasizes the role of parents in talking with infants to help them acquire their native language.

The document outlines the key stages of first language development from infancy through early childhood. It discusses:
- The stages from 0-2 months where babies cry to express needs, to 2-4 months where they begin cooing, and 4-9 months where they engage in babbling.
- From 9-18 months when one-word utterances emerge, to 18 months to 2.5 years when two and three-word phrases are used, allowing for more complex communication.
- Between 2.5-4 years children enter the telegraphic stage using expanded syntax and vocabulary but omitting grammatical markers.
- The stages are universal and related to cognitive development, with certain language features
steps in children acquiring a languageEmine Özkurt
This document summarizes the key stages of language development in children. It discusses four main perspectives on how language is acquired: learning, nativist, interactionist, and cognitive. Children progress through prelinguistic, one-word, telegraphic speech, and early grammar stages from ages 0-5. Piaget's theory of cognitive development also explains language acquisition through its sensory-motor, preoperational, concrete operational, and formal operational stages. The critical period hypothesis suggests there is an ideal time window for acquiring language skills.
The document discusses the stages of first language acquisition in children. It describes 5 stages: pre-talking, babbling, holophrastic, two-word, and telegraphic stages. Each stage is characterized by the typical age at which children progress through it and examples of the language behaviors observed, such as babbling sounds, using single words, and producing two-word sentences. The document also discusses theories of language acquisition and the development of a child's lexicon and morphology.
The document discusses the stages of language development from infancy through adulthood. It begins with definitions of language and then outlines the major stages of language development, including caretaker speech in infancy, the one-word and two-word stages in toddlers, the development of function words and plurals in preschool years, literacy acquisition in school years, the emergence of personal linguistic styles in teen years, and variability in adult language depending on factors like education and occupation. The document also covers the five dimensions of the linguistic system: phonology, morphology, syntax, semantics, and pragmatics.
There are four main stages of first language acquisition:
1. Pre-speech stage from 0-12 months where infants learn speech patterns without using words.
2. One-word ("holophrastic") stage from 12-18 months where children use single words to communicate ideas.
3. Two-word stage from 18-24 months where children start combining two words in sentences.
4. Telegraphic stage from 24-36 months where children use multiple word sentences that may be grammatically incomplete. Language acquisition is supported by an innate capacity and occurs through imitation and understanding of concepts before words.

This document discusses phonological development from prelinguistic stages to early word production. It covers:
1. Babies' ability to perceive speech sounds from birth and how their perception becomes tuned to their native language. Researchers assess perceptual ability using sucking and head turn techniques.
2. Stages of prespeech vocal development from reflexive crying to reduplicated and non-reduplicated babbling between 0-18 months. Babbling is influenced by the target language.
3. The transition from babbling to first words involves protowords and sensorimotor morphemes before words resemble the target language. Phonological processes develop as children alter sounds to match their abilities.

1. The document discusses the development of children's speech production and comprehension from babbling to first words to telegraphic speech to rule formation. It explains that speech comprehension precedes production and the relationship between thought, comprehension, and production.
2. It describes characteristics of parentese/baby talk that aid language learning like exaggerated intonation and simplified grammar and vocabulary. Imitation, rule learning, and correction play roles in acquisition.
3. Memory and logic also facilitate language learning as children form word-object associations through memory and use inductive and deductive reasoning. Abstract words are learned later through experience and metaphor.
1) The stages of first language acquisition begin with cooing and babbling sounds in the first year, progressing to one-word utterances around 12 months and two-word combinations by 18 months.
2) Between 2-2.5 years, children develop telegraphic speech using mostly correct word orders but lacking inflections.
3) Children actively construct language based on patterns they intuit from adult speech, rather than simply imitating adults. Their errors, such as "holded" show they are creatively applying rules as they learn.
Babies progress through distinct stages of phonological development from birth to acquiring their first words. They begin with reflexive crying and sounds, then cooing and laughter around 2 months. Between 4-6 months, babies engage in vocal play and babbling with consonant-like sounds. From 6-12 months, babbling becomes reduplicated with syllables like "mama". Non-reduplicated babbling with varied sounds occurs from 9-18 months as babies transition to their first words. Babies' babbling is initially universal but begins to reflect the target language from 6 months on. Phonological processes then allow babies to adapt new words to their developing sound systems as their perception and production abilities continue mat
There are several stages of first language learning: pre-babbling, babbling, naming, telegraphic, and transformational. In the pre-babbling stage, babies learn to recognize voices from before birth. Babbling occurs from 4-6 months as babies experiment with sounds. During naming, babies begin using one-word utterances around 12 months. The telegraphic stage at 2 years involves 2-3 word phrases. Finally, the transformational stage at 2.5-3 years incorporates morphemes into more complex utterances.
J.P.'s early words followed typical patterns for children, being mostly monosyllabic with a consonant-vowel structure. His initial sounds were those common across many world languages, such as /b, m, d, k/, as predicted by Jakobson's theory of phonological acquisition. In general, children acquire sounds in a predictable order, starting with nasals, then glides, stops, liquids, fricatives and affricates, as well as places of articulation from labials to velars to alveolars to palatals. While children may not distinguish voiced from voiceless consonants early on, controlled experiments show they can perceive contrasts they cannot yet produce. Children
Lecture 13:Language development in children- Dr.Reem AlSabahAHS_student
Language development in children occurs through innate abilities and learning processes. Children progress through universal stages of language acquisition, starting with babbling and first words around 1 year of age. The years from 2-6 are a sensitive period for learning language skills like vocabulary and grammar. Reading aloud to young children supports language development and emergent literacy skills like phonological awareness that are important for learning to read.
1. Babies progress through stages of vocal development from birth, starting with reflexive crying and vegetative sounds. Around 2-5 months they begin cooing and laughter, and from 4-6 months engage in vocal play and babbling.
2. Babbling becomes more complex, including reduplicated babbling from 6-12 months and non-reduplicated babbling from 9-18 months. Babbling is influenced by the target language being learned.
3. Between 18-24 months, babbling transitions to first words as children begin to learn the sounds of their language. Early words have simple structures and a limited sound inventory that expands over time.
4. As vocabulary grows, children develop
Language Acquisition and Language Developmentİbrahim Şahiner
The document discusses theories of child language acquisition and language development. It describes how children's language progresses from simple rules to more complex grammar over time, as evidenced by their use of sentences like "no want food" becoming "I don't want any food." It also discusses how the phonetic structure of the language children are exposed to early in life affects their ability to perceive and produce speech sounds. By around age 1, children can only distinguish phonemes of their native language.
The document discusses the stages of language acquisition in children. It outlines several key stages:
1) The babbling stage occurs around 6 months as babies start producing sounds. Babbling may play a role in language development but its importance is still debated.
2) The holophrastic stage begins around 1 year as children use single words to communicate. Words take on multiple meanings during this stage.
3) The two-word stage emerges around 2 years as children connect words in pairs to form simple sentences through syntax and semantics.
4) The telegraph stage follows as children string more than two words together in sentence-like structures using functional vocabulary in addition to meaning vocabulary. Younger children's language
This document summarizes the key stages of child language acquisition from birth to age 5. It identifies 4 main stages: 1) the pre-linguistic period from birth to 10 months where babies develop sounds but no words; 2) the holophrastic period from 12 to 18 months when children use single words; 3) the telegraphic period from 2 to 3 years when children use 2-word phrases; and 4) the complex period from 3 to 5 years when grammar becomes more advanced. The document also discusses some of the milestones within each period, such as babbling and first words.
This document discusses early language development in infants and children. It covers prelinguistic communication through babbling, gestures, and pointing that occurs before children start using words. It then examines phonological, lexical, and semantic development as children's vocabularies grow. Some key points discussed include: infants producing prelinguistic vocalizations and gestures between 8-12 months; a noun bias in children's early words across languages; challenges to the noun bias from studies of other languages; and constraints that help children map words to meanings as their vocabularies develop.
Advanced stage of child language acquisitionSharmin_Abeer
The advanced stage of child language acquisition occurs between late 2 years and mid 3 years. During this stage, children's language grows as their sentence length and complexity increases. They begin to use morphemes, such as present progressive, prepositions, and plural inflections. Children also start to overgeneralize grammar rules, use negative words, form yes/no questions with intonation, and ask some wh- questions. This stage shows significant development in children's syntactic skills and grammar.
The document discusses the stages of language development in children. It describes Chomsky's Language Acquisition Device hypothesis and Skinner's behaviorist view of language learning. The stages include the prelinguistic period where children engage in babbling and gesturing, the holophrastic period marked by one-word utterances, the telegraphic period when two-word combinations emerge in the form of agent-action or action-object relations, and finally the complex period where children start using grammatical morphemes and forming basic sentences.
This document discusses theories of how children learn languages. It covers:
1) Behaviorist, cognitivist, social-interactionist, and nativist theories of language acquisition.
2) The typical process of acquiring a first language from babbling to complex sentences between ages 0-12.
3) Factors that influence how much and what parts of additional languages children learn under different conditions, such as their age, motivation, and learning environment.
The document discusses psycholinguistics and language acquisition. Psycholinguistics explores the psychological processes involved in language use and how language is represented in the mind. It is concerned with how children acquire language so quickly and what cognitive and environmental factors influence acquisition. The document also outlines some key stages of language development in children, including babbling, first words, two-word phrases, and early multi-word stages. It discusses how different elements of language like phonology, morphology, syntax and semantics develop over time in childhood.
Morpheme acquisition describes how children start adding function words and changing intonation in their speech. Robert Brown identified 13 morphemes acquired by children in a consistent order, such as progressive "-ing", plural "-s", and past tense verbs. This order is influenced by how observable, meaningful, and distinct the sounds are for children. Later speech stages include developing negation, questions, passive voice, and solving problems with multiple verbs and interpreting verb meanings.
The document outlines the typical stages of language development in children from birth to 3 years old. It describes how in the first 3 months infants will awaken to loud sounds and turn to speech but only cry or gurgle. Between 4-12 months children begin to respond to different tones of voice and imitate sounds while using 1-2 words. During 12-24 months, children can point to body parts and put two words together. By 24-36 months, children can follow two-part requests and direct attention by naming objects.
Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD) & Latest Research Findings -...manojpradeep21
ADHD is one of the most common neurodevelopmental disorders of childhood that is characterized by inattention, hyperactivity, and impulsivity. It is caused by abnormalities in dopamine neurotransmission in the brain. The symptoms must be present before age 7 and in multiple environments. It is diagnosed through clinical interviews and behavioral rating scales. Treatments include behavioral therapy, medication, and accommodations to help those with ADHD function better. ADHD often persists into adulthood if not properly treated as a child.
This document discusses speech impairment and bipolar disorder. It defines speech impairment as a condition that affects the production of speech sounds and can interfere with communication. Common speech disorders are articulation disorders, voice problems, and fluency disorders. The document also defines bipolar disorder as a brain disorder that causes unusual changes in mood, including manic and depressive episodes. It lists some potential causes of speech impairment such as brain damage, autism, or physical problems. Assessments and interventions for both conditions are also mentioned, including speech therapy and medication or therapy for bipolar disorder.
Stages of Language Development can be summarized in 3 sentences:
Infants first communicate through prelinguistic sounds like crying and cooing before learning single words to express thoughts and needs. Toddlers then move to two and three word expressions that show an awareness of basic linguistic rules. By ages 3 to 5, children start using longer sentences with grammar and can ask questions, using language similar to adults.
This document discusses phonological development from prelinguistic stages to early word production. It covers:
1. Babies' ability to perceive speech sounds from birth and how their perception becomes tuned to their native language. Researchers assess perceptual ability using sucking and head turn techniques.
2. Stages of prespeech vocal development from reflexive crying to reduplicated and non-reduplicated babbling between 0-18 months. Babbling is influenced by the target language.
3. The transition from babbling to first words involves protowords and sensorimotor morphemes before words resemble the target language. Phonological processes develop as children alter sounds to match their abilities.

It also provides considerations for assessing and treating toddlers with autism spectrum disorder or older children with severe communication disorders.
This document discusses language development from childhood through teaching. It notes that language is communication through speech and outlines the stages of a child's language development from birth cries through family and school influences. The teacher plays a key role by laying foundations in various languages and adopting methods that build from easy to complex concepts. Both heredity and environment impact individual differences in language development, and factors like parents, community, age, gender, intelligence and socioeconomics also influence language growth. Teachers utilize play, discussion, experimentation, observation, case studies and standard methods to engage children and support their language skills.
Language Development - General PsychologyArvin Garing
The document discusses human development from a scientific perspective, seeking to understand how and why people change throughout life, including physical, emotional, language, social, perceptual, and personality growth. It notes that infants at this stage of development can understand simple instructions when accompanied by vocal or physical cues, use words or word fragments, and are aware of the social aspects of speech.
Students with communication disorders may have speech or language impairments that adversely affect their educational performance, such as stuttering, impaired articulation, language impairments, or voice impairments. Speech and language services can exist as the principal service or as a related service to assist a child with another disability. Language acquisition involves the development of phonology, morphology, syntax, semantics, and pragmatics. Types of communication disorders include phonological disorders, articulation disorders, voice disorders, fluency disorders like stuttering, and motor speech disorders. When working with students with communication disorders, teachers should be sensitive, aware, collaborate with speech language pathologists, and provide early intervention.
School Age Speech and Language DevelopmentRosie Amstutz
This document provides an overview of language development and literacy in school-aged children. It discusses that children in this age range are in the initial reading and fluency developmental stages. It outlines key milestones like increasing vocabulary, comprehension skills, and the ability to clarify ambiguities. The document also discusses disorders that can impact language development, strategies to support different learners, and shifts in language input and metalinguistic skills during this period.
Between ages 2-6, children's vocabulary grows enormously from 200 words to 10,000 words. During this period, children learn new words through fast mapping and contrasting new words with words they already know. They also start making guesses about meanings and developing biases like mutual exclusivity around ages 2-3. Adults play an important role by recasting language, expanding on what children say, listening attentively, and encouraging further discussion. By ages 3-4, children's grammar develops to include simple sentences following subject-verb-object order and mastery of basic rules and structures, though questions and agreement may still vary. Language acquisition is supported through conversations, reading books, and outings that stimulate learning.
1) Language and speech development is a complex process that almost every human child succeeds in learning. It involves the development of language, communication of thoughts and feelings through symbols, and speech, the act of expressing thoughts through words.
2) Children progress through different stages in their first few years, starting with babbling, then their first words around 12 months, word combinations around 2 years, and simple sentences by 3-4 years old. Their ability to produce sounds also develops over time as they learn the phonetic patterns of their native language.
3) The development involves both biological and learned aspects. It provides insights into the human mind as children figure out the rules and structures of their ambient language through social interaction
Ch 1 language theory and language developmentsahughes
The document provides an overview of language development theories and disorders in children. It discusses four children who may need language assessments: a 4th grader struggling with reading comprehension, a 6th grader who takes sarcasm literally, a 2-year-old using mainly nouns, and an 8th grader with weak writing skills. It also covers topics like the speech chain model, theories of language development, the domains and components of language, and five communication subdomains to guide clinical assessment and intervention for children's language disorders.
ADHD is a disorder characterized by inattention and/or hyperactivity that interferes with functioning or development. It typically emerges early in life by age 7 and symptoms are most severe during elementary school. It is defined by at least 6 symptoms of inattention and/or 6 of hyperactivity/impulsivity according to the DSM-IV criteria. ADHD occurs worldwide with a prevalence of 3-7% in school-aged children and tends to run in families. It is diagnosed based on the number and severity of symptoms, ruling out alternative causes, and impairment in functioning.
This document discusses educational strategies for teachers to help students with ADHD. It identifies some key behaviors of ADHD like difficulty paying attention, hyperactivity, and impulsiveness. The document recommends a three-pronged strategy for teachers: identifying student needs, using effective instructional practices, and consulting other educators as needed. It provides examples of teaching practices, organizational skills, behavioral interventions, and classroom accommodations that can help students with ADHD succeed academically.
detailed presentation on learning disabilitiesDivya Murthy
This document discusses learning disabilities, including definitions, types, suspected causes, assessment practices, and legal considerations. It notes that learning disabilities affect a broad range of academic and functional skills, such as reading, writing, and reasoning. Common types include dyslexia, dyscalculia, and dysgraphia. Assessment involves informal methods like observations as well as formal testing of cognitive abilities, information processing, and educational achievement. Technology can help individuals with learning disabilities, and laws like IDEA, Section 504, and ADA provide legal protections for students.
The document discusses the main stages of first language acquisition:
1) The pre-speech stage where infants learn to pay attention to speech before beginning to speak.
2) The babbling stage starting around 4-6 months, characterized by indiscriminate speech sounds and repeated syllables.
3) The one word or "holophrastic" stage starting around 9 months where children utter their first words and develop regular pronunciation by 50 words.
4) The combining words stage starting around 2 years where children speak in sentences of several words but their grammar is still developing.
Language is acquired naturally, with meaning taking priority over structure, and reinforced through real-world experiences. As with first language acquisition, second language learners progress from single words to combining words based on meaning before identifying sentence elements, and can rearrange elements to form questions. Motivation and anxiety levels impact the language acquisition process, so teachers should provide instruction at a student's current proficiency level plus one additional level.
Stages in 1st language - Wissam Ali Askarwissam999
Children progress through several stages in acquiring their first language. They develop receptive language skills like comprehending speech before expressive skills like speaking. Babbling emerges around 3 months and transitions to first words by 12 months in the one-word stage. Between 12-18 months, children use single words and by 2 years begin combining words into simple sentences in the two-word stage. From 2-3 years, the telegraphic stage is characterized by longer but grammatically simplified utterances. Cognitive development facilitates language acquisition as children's understanding of concepts like objects and time influence their linguistic development.
Children acquire phonology over several years, beginning with babbling in the first year. In the second year, children produce their first words which start with simple syllables and a limited set of sounds. In subsequent years, children learn to pronounce an extensive vocabulary as their sounds and syllables increase in number and complexity. Phonological processes describe common error patterns observed as children acquire their native language's phonology.
The document summarizes language development from birth through three years old. It notes that infants begin with crying and cooing, then progress to babbling consonant sounds by 6 months. By their first birthday, infants say their first words, usually names. Exposure to language helps development, as toddlers learn 50-100 new words per month after 50 words are acquired. Their vocabularies grow from a few hundred words at age 2 to over 10,000 words by age 6.

Physiological prerequisites of sound productionVic Cedres
Children acquire language through a complex process involving both nature and nurture. They progress through distinct stages of phonological, lexical, and grammatical development from babbling to first words to combining words. Early errors reveal rule-governed learning as children segment words into syllables and master their native language's phonemes and phonological processes. Social interaction provides crucial input, though children can acquire language without full exposure through innate language learning capacities.
1) Children begin developing language skills at a young age, with many saying their first words around age 1 and having vocabularies of 30-50 words by age 1.5.
2) Early language development includes creating "idiomorphs", words children invent to refer to objects, as well as beginning to use speech without directly addressing others.
3) As children develop, they progress from one-word "holophrastic" sentences to using more complex grammar and phrase structures in their language.
Chapter 1 language learning in early childhoodTshen Tashi
The document summarizes key aspects of first language acquisition in children, including developmental milestones from crying and babbling to producing one-word and multi-word utterances. It also discusses children's acquisition of grammatical morphemes and question formation. Additionally, it examines various theories that aim to explain language learning, such as behaviorist, innatist, and interactionist perspectives, and discusses factors like the importance of interaction and the critical period hypothesis.
The document discusses language development in early childhood from behavioral, innate, and interactionist perspectives. Regarding behaviorism, it explains that children learn language through imitation, practice, reinforcement, and habit formation. However, children also use language creatively by generalizing patterns and combining elements in novel ways, which cannot be fully explained by behaviorism alone. An interactionist view is that both internal cognitive processes and external social influences shape language acquisition.
Children acquire language in predictable stages regardless of location or language. There are pre-linguistic, one-word, two-word, and telegraphic stages where children's utterances become more complex as their vocabulary and grammar develop. Theories suggest children's early language serves practical, social, and learning purposes rather than just labeling objects. Children master grammar structures like pluralization before structures like past tense as they progress toward fluent language use by age 5.
The document discusses several theories of language development in children:
- The learning perspective argues that children learn through imitation, punishment and reinforcement. B.F. Skinner's theory of operant conditioning also suggested children learn language through reinforcement.
- The nativist perspective, associated with Noam Chomsky, argues that humans have an innate language acquisition device that allows them to instinctively learn language without instruction.
- Interactionists, such as Lev Vygotsky, believe that both biological and social factors influence language development. Vygotsky's zone of proximal development describes how children learn through interactions with more knowledgeable others.
- Other theories discussed include Piaget's concepts of assimilation and accommodation, the theory of language codes,
Oral language development occurs in stages from birth through age 4. Babies first coo and babble consonant-vowel sounds between 4-6 months. Around 8-10 months, babbling becomes more varied and complex, resembling adult speech. From 1 year, children use single words and invented words. Between ages 2-3, they speak in short telegraphic phrases. By ages 3-4, most children are moderately fluent using oral language for communication. The development is facilitated through interactions with caregivers and peers in language-rich environments.
Children begin developing language from a very early age. By around 12 months, most children will say their first words and by 16 months will have a vocabulary of 30-50 words on average. Early language takes forms like invented words called "idiomorphs" and "egocentric speech" where children talk to themselves without addressing anyone. As children develop their language abilities, they progress from one-word "holophrastic" sentences to two-word sentences often using a "pivot" word. The ability to learn and produce language sets human children apart from other primates like chimpanzees.
Children begin developing language from a very early age. By around 12 months, most children will say their first words and by 16 months will have a vocabulary of 30-50 words on average. Children also invent their own words called "idiomorphs" to refer to objects. Additionally, children engage in "egocentric speech" where they talk to themselves without addressing anyone in particular as a way to describe what they are doing. The ability to learn and produce language develops rapidly in the first year of life as infants listen to patterns in language and begin to decompose words.
Early language aquisition # zahraa khudhair &helen hamedZahraaAlabboodi
This document summarizes key aspects of early language acquisition in children. It discusses pre-linguistic communication through gestures before children start using words. As children's vocabulary grows, they start combining words, first using holophrases and then two-word utterances that follow semantic roles. Grammatical categories emerge as children learn order rules and map semantic roles to syntactic positions. Both speech perception and production develop from babbling to first words to combining words. The acquisition of sign language follows similar developmental patterns to spoken language acquisition.
This document discusses language development in early childhood. It begins by defining key terms like first language (L1), second language (L2), foreign language (FL), and target language (TL). It then outlines typical developmental patterns and sequences in L1 acquisition, including the acquisition of grammatical morphemes, negation, and questions. Several theoretical approaches to L1 acquisition are presented, including behaviorism which views it as imitation and reinforcement, and innatism which sees it as biologically determined. The document also discusses childhood bilingualism and factors in early language development like metalinguistic awareness and vocabulary growth.
Children develop semantic skills gradually, learning a few words per week at first and then experiencing a vocabulary burst where they learn around 5 new words per day. By age 5, the average child has a vocabulary of around 6,000 words. Children use principles like fast mapping and whole object assumption to efficiently learn new words and their meanings. Their ability to learn and apply grammatical rules like plurals and past tense is evidenced by tests like the WUG test and their tendency to overregularize irregular verbs. Mean length of utterance (MLU) can measure children's developing syntactic skills as they start combining words.
Language development begins early in life through acquiring language from those speaking around infants. Children's language moves from simple to complex, starting without words but developing the ability to discriminate speech sounds by age 4 months. By their second birthday, toddlers use structures like action+agent and action+object, and they begin to interpret the subject+verb+object structure of English. Preschoolers actively analyze language, formulating rules and hypotheses to continue learning more complex structures and vocabulary.

2. Learning Language: the first words
It first becomes obvious that children are actually learning to
talk some time between twelve and eighteen months of age when
they begin to use single-word utterances of the following type:
juice
there
byebye
hi
car
hot
dada
no
big
shoe
look
up
biscuit
that
wassat
allgone
dirty
ball
Studies of child language development usually refer to these
one-word utterances as ‘holophrases’, implying thereby that these
single items carry a broader and more diffuse range of meaning
than do their equivalents in adult languages.
3. Some precursors of language development
THE INFANT CRY
From the moment of birth, for example,
infants can impinge dramatically on those
around them: they can cry. Indeed, from the
first weeks of life they have a repertoire of at
least three distinguishable types of cry – the
hunger cry, the pain cry, and a cry associated
with fatigue, boredom or discomfort – each
sounding subtly differrent from the other.
4. Some precursors of language development
THE INFANT CRY
The hunger cry, or ‘basic cry’ as it sometimes known, is a
moderately pitched loud cry that builds into a rhythmic
cycle made up of a cry itself followed by a short silence,
then an intake of breath followed by another short
silence before the next cry resumes the cycle.
The discomfort cry or ‘grumble’ is lower in pitch, more
variable in volume, though generally quieter than the
basic cry.
The pain cry is markedly different again, taking the form of
an inward grasp folloed by a high-pitched, long-drawnout rising shriek.
5. Some precursors of language development
FURTHER DEVELOPMENTS IN VOCALIZATION
The phase of ‘coing’ aroung three months and this gives
way in turn to a period of ‘babbling’ from aroung six
months onwards.
FROM VOCALIZATION TO COMMUNICATIVE
EXPESSION
One childe (reported in Halliday, 1975) fastened on the
sound ‘nanana(na)’ and used it to mean ‘give me my toy
bird’, he used a sound something like ‘buh’. While the
latter sound may be indirectly related to the adult word
for object, the other expression (‘nanana’) has no obvious
antecedent in the language (English) that this child was
taking over.
6. Some precursors of language development
THE COMMUNICATIVE FUNCTIONS OF
THE EARLY EXPRESSIONS
The kind of work being performed by these two
examples is primarily instrumental: they fulfill ‘I
want’ function for the child, serving satisfy
material needs and to gain the goods and other
services that are required from an immediate
situation. Other functions that emerge around this
time are the regulatory, the interactional and the
personal.
7. The early communicative expressions as as protolanguage
Babbling and vocal doodling fade out completely with the
advent of these functionally oriented expressions or
‘protoforms’. With others, babbling continues side by
side with the protoforms on into the development of
speech.
CONDITIONS THAT AID THE EMERGENCE OF A
PROTOLANGUAGE
The child is typically interacting predominantly with a
small circle of ‘significant others’, and the world of
persons and objects with whom and about which the
child communicates is usually relatively constant and
familiar.
8. The early communicative expressions as as protolanguage
EXPANDING THE PROTOLANGUAGE
Given special circumstances, the child is able to
accumulate expressions, thereby refining the distinctions
in meaning that s/he can make in each of the four
functional areas. For example, the child who produced
‘nanana’ at around nine months (see Halliday,1975)
continued over a six-and-a-half month period to
acuumulate roughly ten protoforms for expressing
instrumental purposes, adding expressions for meanings
such as
‘I want the clock’
‘I want some toast’
‘I want a rusk’
‘I want some powder’
to the basic two expressions that he began with in this
area.
9. From protolanguage to holophrases
Initially the holoprhases operate in similar ways to
the protoforms that cpomprises the protolanguage,
tending to slot into, and be an enactment of, one or the
other of the already established repertoire of functions,
be it the instrumental, regulatory, personal, heuristic,
intercational or imaginative function. Initially, then,
the holoprhases fit into the place alongside the
protoforms of the existing protolanguage. They do,
however, constitute a new departure for the child, who
now begins to assimilate expressions ready-made from
the speech of theos around him/her, instead of making
up protoforms afresh as s/he goes along.
10. Two-word utterances as beginning of syntax
The holophrastic phase has enabled the child to lay
down set of possibilities for doing things with
language – a functional basis, in effect, for later
developments. Now s/he must find ways for realizing
these functions not just in words but in the word
sequences that are such a crucial component of the
adult language system. In essence the child has to
develop a syntax; a way of combining single words
into sentences.
