One Idiosyncratic Strategy in the Acquisition of Phonology

Priestly, T. M. S.

Journal of Child Language, 4, 1, 45-65, Feb 77

Data are presented that reflect a particular strategy used by a boy from age 1;10 to 2;2 to manage certain polysyllabic words. Analysis shows that substitution was not involved, and an interpretation is made in terms of "underlying forms." Details of the strategy and its component sub-strategies are presented. (CHK)
