Production as a Source of Input for Analysis: Evidence from the Developmental Course of a Word-Blend.

Elbers, Loekie

Journal of Child Language, v22 n1 p47-71 Feb 1995

Reviews theoretical arguments from a longitudinal study of 1 Dutch child (age 3;8.13 at start) for considering production as a source of input for analysis and presents empirical evidence supporting the output-as-input hypothesis for the blending of the Dutch words "wats" and "iets." Evidence suggests the child analyzed his own creation of blending the two words into one. (42 references) (NAV)
