Want-Constructions as Non-Canonical Imperatives
This article presents a longitudinal case study of want-constructions in an English–Russian bilingual child whose early language was characterized by prolonged pronoun reversal (i.e., using you for self-reference). The analysis focuses on want-constructions used during a period in which canonical English imperatives were not documented (e.g., want tear it). Drawing on detailed diary records (ages 2;8–5;5), the study examines the morphosyntactic f…
Acquisition d’articles en anglais L2
Cette étude examine le rôle de la distinction nombre/masse dans l'acquisition des articles en anglais (indéfini a, défini the et l'article nul) par les apprenants de langue seconde (L2). Quarante et un apprenants d'origine slave L1 (russe, ukrainien, etc.) à trois niveaux de compétence (intermédiaire, avancé, quasi natif) et 14 locuteurs natifs de l'anglais américain ont effectué une tâche de compréhension composée de 48 éléments répartis uniform…
Root infinitives in child second language English
This article examines the emergence of finiteness in early second language (L2) English of five consecutive bilinguals (ages 6 to 9). The departure point is Gavruseva’s (2002; 2003) proposal that nonfinite root predicates result from the underspecification of syntactic aspectual heads at the initial state S 0 . Gavruseva’s ‘underspecification of AspP’ account is developed further by examining the feature contents of aspectual projections in Engli…
Finiteness and Aspect in Spanish/English Bilingual Acquisition
The article investigates the acquisition of finiteness in the languages of a Spanish/English bilingual child (Mina, 1;9.5-2;6.21). We use the `underspecification of AspP hypothesis' of Gavruseva (2002 b, 2003) to argue that a non-finite root stage is attested in both Spanish and English, despite the fact that the two languages evolve as grammars with distinct INFLs (Rizzi 1993/94, Wexler 1998). It is shown that the use of non-finite and finite ro…
Aktionsart, aspect, and the aquisition of finiteness in early child grammar
This article investigates the origins of the eventivity effect during the root infinitive (RI) stage in child French, German, Dutch, and English. Ferdinand (1996), Wijnen (1997), Hoekstra and Hyams (1998), and Becker and Hyams (2000) show that children acquiring French, German, and Dutch (F/G/D) use almost exclusively event-denoting predicates as root infinitives (RIs). By contrast, stative verbs in these child languages have been shown to appear…
