Form and Function in the Acquisition of Korean Wh-Questions.

Clancy, Patricia M.

Journal of Child Language, v16 n2 p323-47 Jun 1989

The order in which wh-questions are acquired in the production and comprehension of two Korean one-year-olds is analyzed and compared. Consistencies in acquisition order are to be based on universals of cognitive development, while discrepancies in acquisition order were attributed to differences in interactive styles across caregivers and children. 39 references.
