Book excerpt: This study examines English speakers learning Spanish as a second language and compares their acquisition of a pragmatic competency-non-canonic word order-with their acquisition of a grammatical competency-the correct use of past tense verbs. Although both Spanish and English share the subject-verb-object arrangement of constituents as canonic word order, Spanish speakers frequently use other arrangements, often beginning sentences with verbs. It is hypothesized that English speakers, as a result of transferring the rigidity of English word order, acquire the non-canonic form comparatively late and in relation to their exposure to native Spanish, while they tend to acquire grammatical skills earlier and show progressive improvement from level to level. The subjects-64 in all-comprised native Spanish speakers, advanced bilinguals who had learned Spanish as adults, and university students enrolled in Spanish classes of different levels. Some of the student subjects had studied Spanish abroad, but others had not. The results confirm that pragmatic competency in using non-canonic word order is generally acquired later and in relation to exposure to Spanish in a natural setting, while grammatical competency is acquired regularly through progressive stages. The results pose interesting questions and suggest further research in second language acquisition, Spanish linguistics, and Spanish pedagogy.

Book The Acquisition of Spanish

Download or read book The Acquisition of Spanish written by Silvina Montrul and published by John Benjamins Publishing. This book was released on 2004-01-01 with total page 436 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This is the first book on the acquisition of Spanish that provides a state-of-the-art comprehensive overview of Spanish morphosyntactic development in monolingual and bilingual situations. Its content is organized around key grammatical themes that form the empirical base of research in generative grammar: nominal and verbal inflectional morphology, subject and object pronouns, complex structures involving movement (topicalizations, questions, relative clauses), and aspects of verb meaning that have consequences for syntax. The book argues that Universal Grammar constrains all instances of language acquisition and that there is a fundamental continuity between monolingual, bilingual, child and adult early grammatical systems. While stressing their similarities with respect to linguistic representations and processes, the book also considers important differences between these three acquisition situations with respect to the outcome of acquisition. It is also shown that many linguistic properties of Spanish are acquired earlier than in English and other languages. This book is a must read for those interested in the acquisition of Spanish from different theoretical perspectives as well as those working on the acquisition of other languages in different contexts.

Book Beyond Names for Things

Download or read book Beyond Names for Things written by Michael Tomasello and published by Psychology Press. This book was released on 2014-02-25 with total page 428 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Most research on children's lexical development has focused on their acquisition of names for concrete objects. This is the first edited volume to focus specifically on how children acquire their early verbs. Verbs are an especially important part of the early lexicon because of the role they play in children's emerging grammatical competence. The contributors to this book investigate: * children's earliest words for actions and events and the cognitive structures that might underlie them, * the possibility that the basic principles of word learning which apply in the case of nouns might also apply in the case of verbs, and the role of linguistic context, especially argument structure, in the acquisition of verbs. A central theme in many of the chapters is the comparison of the processes of noun and verb learning. Several contributors make provocative suggestions for constructing theories of lexical development that encompass the full range of lexical items that children learn and use.
