Cross-Linguistic Invariants and Variation in Language Development
The goal of this chapter is to present some of the interesting and important aspects of cross-linguistic comparisons which can be made between the acquisition of Japanese and of English. We d o not attempt an exhaustive review of the literature (see, for example, Clancy, in press; Iwata, 1979; Murata , 1968, 1972; Sato, 1978 for reviews of the Japanese literature). We focus instead first on the...
متن کاملLanguage variation and linguistic invariants
Human languages are diverse and so precise statements of common properties must abstract away from specifics of particular languages. We note several abstract and absolute ‘Type 1’ universals and present some new ones built on a notion of ‘structural invariant’ that applies equally to constituent structure and individual grammatical morphemes. Crucially, these universals may be realized in stru...
متن کاملLinguistic Invariants and Language Variation
Since the publication of Noam Chomsky’s field founding Syntactic Structures in 1957, generative grammarians have been formulating and studying the grammars of particular languages to extract from them what is general across languages. The idea is that properties which all languages have will give us some insight into the nature of mind. A widely acknowledged problem to which this work has led i...

15 صفحه اولDevelopmental stages and variability in the acquisition of second language segments and prosody
The perceived impression that a spoken utterance is not native is due to the culmination of a combination of segmental and suprasegmental phonological and phonetic characteristics entrenched in the speakers native language (L1) or it results from different types of interplay between those characteristics of the L1 and the second (or foreign) language (L2). The present paper reports findings of ...
