- 1What are the 4 stages of the pre-verbal stage?1- Vegetative
2- Cooing
3- Babbling
4- Proto-words - 2Describe the vegetative stage (age included)sounds of discomfort or reflexive actions
0-4 months - 3Describe the cooing stage (age included)Comfort sounds and vocal play using open-mouthed vowel sounds
4-7 months - 4Describe the babbling stage (age included)repeated patterns of consonant and vowel sounds
6-12 months - 5Describe the proto-word stage (age included)world-like vocalisations, not matching actual words but used consistently for the same meaning, 'scribble talk'.
9-12 months - 6What are the 4 stages of lexical and grammatical development?1- Holophrastic/one word
2- Two words
3- Telegraphic
4- Post-telegraphic - 7Describe the holophrastic / one word stage (age included)One-word utterances
12-18 months - 8Describe the two word stage (age included)Two-word combinations
18-24 months - 9Describe the telegraphic stage (age included)three or more words combined
24-36 months - 10Describe the post-telegraphic stage (age included)More grammatically complex combinations
36+ months - 11What is LAD?Language Acquisition Device- the human brain's inbuilt capacity to acquire language.
- 12What are the 7 types of early phonological errors?1- Deletion
2- Substitution
3- Addition
4- Assimilation
5- Reduplication
6- Consonant cluster reductions
7- Deletion of unstressed syllables - 13What is deletion?Omitting the final consonant in words.
- 14What is substitution?Substituting one sound for another
- 15What is addition?Adding an extra vowel sound to the ends of words, creating a CVCV pattern.
- 16What is assimilation?Changing one consonant or vowel for another
- 17What is reduplication?Repeating a whole syllable
- 18What are consonant cluster reductions?Consonant clusters can be difficult to articulate so children reduce them to smaller units ('pider' spider)
- 19what is deletion of unstressed syllables?Omitting the opening syllable in polysyllabic words ('nana' banana)
- 20What are the 4 stages of Piaget's children's linguistic developments1- Sensorimotor
2- Pre-operational
3- Concrete operational
4- Formal operational - 21What are the key elements of the sensorimotor stage, and at what age does it occur?The child experiences the physical world through the senses, and begins classifying the things in it; lexical choices, when they appear, tend to be concrete rather than abstract. object permanence develops- the concept that objects exist when out of sight.
Up to 2 - 22What are the key elements to pre-operational, and at what age do they occur?Language and motor skills develop and become more competent. Language is egocentric- either focused on child or used by child when no one else is around.
2-7. - 23What are the key elements of the concrete operational stage, and at what age do they occur?Children begin to think logically about concrete events,
7-11 - 24What are the the key elements of the formal operational stage, and at what age do they occur?Abstract reasoning skills develop.
11+ - 25What are the two areas of grammar?Syntax and Morpholoy
- 26What do syntactical advances allow children to do when learning to speak?1- order words into phrases and clauses
2- make different types of utterances for different functions apart from declarative - 27What do morphological advances allow children to do?1- add inflections to words creating tense, marking distinctions between adjectives, showing possession and making plurals.
2- experiment with language by adding prefixes and suffixes to make up words and to convert words from one word class to another. - 28What is inflectional morphology?The alteration of words to make new grammatical forms.
- 29What is derivational morphology?The creation of new words by adding prefixes and suffixes.
