Transitional Phenomena in Early Language Acquisition

Dore, John; And Others

Journal of Child Language, 3, 1, 13-28, Feb 76

Two transitional phases in the child's early language development are described; the first occurs between prelinguistic vocalization and one-word speech and the second between one-word and patterned speech. Cognitive, linguistic and affective inputs to the acquisition of reference and syntax are discussed in the light of the transitional phenomena. (Author/RM)
