shift fom infants vocalizations to first words
Include:
Primative: requesting action

Halliday's Communicative Function
9 communicative functions
communicative functions in toddlers as vocal getural adn verba; behaviors serve as comm purpose
goals and intentions overlapp with with those conveyed in PSA
Include:
Instrumental: satify their material needs
Regulatory: attempt to control caregiver behavior in ways diectly affecting toddler
Interactional: attempts to get caregivers attention
Personal: feeling or emotions
Heuristic: intended to diect attention of other to obtain info about shared reference
Pragmatic: combo of exisiting
Mathetic: learning about ones enviro
informative: coveys info about objects nad events

act of establishing a subject for a convo that a speaker is about to begin
develope as infant establish joint reference, through gaze, gestures, vocal
Words: increase joint reference, can introduce objects that are absent

judge how much their listeners might know about the subject being introduced and adapt utterances accord

critical when subject not apperant

Is challenged as toddlers bounderies abd recall expand

First words
Outgrowth of the communicative skills
established through the gestures and
vocalizations of the preceding 8-12 mon
When is it a word?
8-16 months first appear
1. utterance occur with consistancy in a given context
2. have phonetic resemblance to the adult word
what do first words sound like?
attepmts at single words or common phrases

subset of sounds produced in later babbling

front consonants CV VC

CVCV typically reduplicated syllables
First Lexicon
The total words belonging to a given language

indicates the words in a persons vocab

may only know words in a certain context
knowing a word
Stages:
1. Referential sense: word stands for an object or event or relationship
ex: "doggy" for pet,

2. extended sense: "doggy" stands for creature in neiboor

3. Relational sense: producing some words related by context
ex: dog house, dog bark

3. Categoricalsense : child responds to similarities among classes of stimuli
ex: understanding dogs are animals

4. Metalinguistic sense: evaluate each word as a stimulus
ex: notice when words rhyme
hot-dog
growth of lexicon
expressive vocab 50 words by 18 mon

recepetive vocab > expressive
Classes of first words
nouns 50% of utterances

common nouns-produce to a unique, individual item, not class

Nominal Specfiic- mamma, daddy....
Action- go, ride, up, play
Modifiers- big dirty yukky
Personal Social- no, hi byebye
Functional- what where for...
Why more nouns?
Grounded meanings, more concrete?
• Nouns occur in final position, more
conspicuous and perceptually salient
• Higher frequency in adult talk to children
Meaning of First Word
Nelsons classifications
Blooms classification

categories on how word relate to objects opossed to entities
Nelsons Classification
distinguished two broad classes of meaning in toddlers first words
Toddlers meanings either referential or expressive
Nelson

Referential Words

Expressive words
mostly nominals

personal social
Why this Referential-Expressive difference
Differences in
– Language learning experience
– Personality
– Analytical - Holistic learning style
– Differences in which parts of the brain
doing the work
Bloom Classification
responding to features and functions shared by other items
Bloom

Substantive
Labels referents- begin to reck there are more mommies but knowtheir own
Bloom

Relational Words

Action

Location

Atrribution
Communicate abstract relations between objects

talk about action associated with object("throw" when throw ball)

location or diectional movement of objects("up" while pointing to object)

express individual characteristics(big, little, dirty)
Bloom
Reflective Relations

Existence
Nonexistence
Disaperance
recurrance
ways in which objects relate to themselves

expressed in words that relate to object (this, that, wassat?)

object not present where inticipates

an object that was present disapears

word indicates the object or duplicate has reappeared, saying "more" at snack time
Over/underextension
Overextensions - broad reference
– Chaining
– Wholistic
– Underextensions - narrow reference
Overextension

Chaining
When a word experience in one setting is
produced in a subsequent setting based on
similar features
» More prevalent during early stages of vocab
development
Overextension

Wholistic
When words are extended to items that share a
great number of semantic features
Theories of Conceptual Behavior
responding to a variety of items that are related to some feature defining them as a class
Clarks semantic feature Hypothesis
concepts form around perceptual features: shapes, size, color
ex: child calls the the moon a bowl bc it is round and white like ceral bowl
Nelsons Functional core hypothesis
concepts form based on basic use of the object

child calls a shovel a spoon bc it digs the dirt like he digs into cereal
Bowerman's Prototypical Complex
concepts based on early experiences but shift with new experiences

ex: child calls a book a "box" bc of shape then later calls it a "door" bc the cover opens and closes
Transition From single word
begin to combine words in two word utterances around 18mon

Characteristics:
2 true words
• No pauses between words
• Single intonational contour
• Rising intonation
• Falling intonation
Transition Utterances
represent progression from single word utterance to multiword utterance
Trans Utter

Dummy Forms

Empty Forms
adiitional sounds or syllables combined with reck word( e baby, u cup)

not reck words but combine with a true word(mama<didi>)
Trans Utter

Reduplication

Pseudophrases
repeated word, uttered with same intonational countour (carcar)

early approx of multiword through production fo two-word phrase (allgone, nomore) in which individual elements do not occur elsewhere
Trans Utter

successive single words utterances

grouping patterns
productions of individual words in succession with a pause inbetween

evidence of true word utterances produced with effort and hesitation
Two Word COmbinations

synataactic characteristics
Based on Chomsky’s theory of relating
toddler grammars to adult grammars
Syntactic Chara

Telegraphic Speech
Telegram-like 2 word combinations
– Contain content words (nouns, verbs,
adjectives)
– Delete function words (articles,
conjunctions)
 Assumes toddlers have complete adult
grammar but limits in motor co-ordination or
memory shorten utterances
Syntact Charact

Pivot Grammer
Content words based word position in the
toddler’s 2-word utterances:
– Pivot words: small set of words occurring in
certain position
– Open words: larger set in any position

Problem: Not all utterances fit the pattern exactly by
retaining the expected position
– Go me
– Cookie more
 Most kids used Pivot - Pivot combinations
– Example: More go!!!
Linear Syntactic Relationship
Simple linear combination of
– a fixed function word with same meaning
regardless of what follows (more, there)
– followed by any other word (milk, cookie)
 Word order is only additive - add the two word
meanings, but NO new meaning from
combination
– “more cookie”

Problem: Linear syntax relations do not reflect that
meaning is changed by the word
combination
Semantic-Syntactic characteristics

Semantic-Syntactic Rules
describes children early grammer, expressing meaning motivates for attempting to learn correct forms

Toddlers combine two words to change “compound”
the meaning: 1+1= 2+
Semantic-Syntact Charac

Case Frames

Autoclitic Frames
Browns Concept of the early consistent word orders used by children to express semantic relationships

Skinner concept of certain orders in verbal responses that express relationships amoung stimuli
Locative Action Relations
involve objects changing locations(mommy do, doggie down)
Locative state relations
2-word utterances refect object in static spatial relations(baby chair, mommy bed)
state relations
status of object
posession
singling entitlement(daddy chair)
Tools for learning Language

Evocative Uterances
Toddler appears to make statement
– Reflects certainty & solid concept
development with falling intonation
– “That doggie” “misty outside ”
 Caregiver offers feedback
– Confirm: “Oh, yep, that IS a doggie”
– Correct: “No Nickie, that’s a kitty”
– Confirm: “misty is outside”
– Correct: “No, misty is inside
Tools for learning Language

hypothesis testing
Toddler makes question-like statement
– Reflects uncertainty, loosely formed concept
development & request for feedback
– Rising intonation: “That doggie”
 Caregiver gives feedback
– “Oh, yes, that’s a doggie” vs. “No, that’s a horse
- giddiyup, giddiyup”
 Examples: “Big cat ” “Mine ball ”
Tools for larning language

Interrogative utterances
Interrogative Utterances
 Toddler questions - requests label name
with rising intonation
– “Wassit? ”
– “Wassat? ”
– “Dat? ”
– “Dis? ”
 More frequent 12-24 months
 Caregiver labels in response: “That’s a
dog
Tools for learing language

Selective imitation
Toddler imitates portion of caregiver’s
previous utterance in child’s next several
utterances
 Increases 12-24 months
 Familiar, conspicuous words
 Grammatical forms child is learning
 Focus vs. Substitution Operations
– “Go Bed” vs. “Go Bath
input modelsand child-directed speech
model: Any behavior produced by caregiver that a
child is aware of & provides an opportunity
to be imitated
 Models should be appropriate to the child’s
developmental levels

CDS: Perceptual salient:Higher pitch
 Exaggerated intonation
 Slower rate
– Distinct pauses between
utterances
– Prolong final syllable
 Few spoken errors

Contextually redundant: Here and now” joint attention
 Verbally redirect child’s attention

Linguistically simple: Simple grammatical forms
 Short utterance length
 Simple until 24-27 months
 Lexical redundancy
restrict vocab to concrete terms, repeat key words, subsitute alternate forms
Cargivers tools

prompts

turnabouts
utterances that stimulate responses from their children to continue verbal exchange,

various comments and questions that follow to maintain the interaction, keep interaction moving
Caregiver tools
Elicited imitations
Fill-in
confirmation yes/no questions
wh-constituents questions
open-ended questions
"say firecracker" imitate the word modeled by caregiver

This is a ___ allows child to complete a statement by supplying the correct word

requires simple no or yes

used to provoke specific infoin childs response "what do dogs say?"

allows for a variety of info to be included in response"what happens when there is a fire?"
Caregiver tools
contingents queries
coversational repairs
specific and nonspecific questions that request information, confirmation, clarification

devices used to clarify messages within a convo
Contingency

Imitation
Expansion
Extension
repeat childs utterance, freq repeated by child, act to confirm utterance is heard, confirms that was worth repeating

reproduce childs utterance but also add serval grammatical additions, "bird fly"....."thats right, the bird is flying"

respond with additional semantic info related to topic "bird flying"....birds have wings to fly
Private and Socialized Speech

Monologues

affective expressive monologues

Collective monologue

Associated monologues
private speech when child talks to themselve, qualify as convo bc expand on previous utterances and successive utterances

talk to themselves to express emotions "i love mommy, mmommy hugs. I love daddy"

socialized mode of conversation, occurs when children playing in each other presence....content of utterances are independent

characterized by preschoolers contribute individual monologues related to the same topic
socialized speech
addresses their partners utterances and begint o show concern fo actual transmission of info
Semantic Dev

word meaning
Relationships between words

First words
– Simply associations between events or objects
in the world around them
• Later words
– Symbolic
• Absence of referent - the words themselves carry
meaning
Sem Dev

Sem Dev

Fast Mapping

Extended Mapping
first stage of word learning children associate a word and its reference after initisl exposure

second stage is a prolonged process of modifying word meaning witha additional experiences following inital fast mapping
Lexical Learning Principles
principle of reference- children assume that words refer to objects, events, and attributes around them

principle of extendiblity- generalize a new word to other similar objects

wholeobject-assume new name applies to to a category for which they do not know name for
Creative vocabulary
words preschoolers produce to sill the void of words they do not know
"dig-spoon" shovel
Development of Relational terms
relational terms: used to describe relationships,size, color location

terms that are critical for understanding day to day activities

cause difficulty be: such terms do not refer to properties that are all or none

children will disagree on whose daddy is the biggest
Dimensional Words

unmarked

Marked
words that are adjectives pairs used to indicate the various dimensions of objects big/little, high/low

positive end: that shelf is 9 feet HIGH

negative end: That shelf is 2 feet LOW

preschoolers tend to learn positive unmarked sooner, refect the presence of dimension
color words
By about 4-5 preschools should be able to name blue,
green, yellow, and red
• But appears to be only a very basic understanding of the
concept of color
spatial words
By 4, children should know in,inside, on, and under
– Not until 5 do we see kids understanding next to, in
front of, behind
Kinship words
terms can be confusing for young preschoolers,
developed through that relate most directly to preschooler mom, dad, sister brother

son, daughter, grandmom-dad next to develope

third is uncle, aunt, niece, cousin....not until 10 yrs that all terms are understood
Temporal Words
how events relate to each other over time
Duration, order, or sequence
– Preschoolers master order words first, then words such
as since and until learned much later
– 5 year olds will understand
• While and at the same time.
