Input factors in the acquisition of evidentiality by Turkish heritage language children and adults in the United States
Aspectual and mood morphology are vulnerable domains in adult heritage speakers. This paper investigates the root of such vulnerability within the domain of Turkish evidentiality system by comparing 20 second-generation adult and 20 school-age child Turkish heritage speakers to 20 first-generation immigrants (main input providers for child heritage speakers) residing in the United States. A monolingual group from Turkey including 20 monolingual a…
How Flexible Are Grammars Past Puberty? The Case of Relative Clauses in Turkish-American Returnees
How flexible are grammars after puberty? To answer this, we test returnees: heritage speakers (HS) born in an immigration context who returned to their homeland in later years. If returnees are targetlike, then language is still malleable after puberty; in contrast, if maturational effects are in play, postpuberty returnees will show variability. Thirty-two Turkish-American returnees, 30 Turkish HS in the United States, and 30 monolinguals comple…
Relative clauses in child heritage speakers of Turkish in the United States
How does complex syntax develop in heritage language children? This study investigates child Turkish heritage speakers’ comprehension and production of relative clauses (RCs) in Turkish and in English. RCs vary on their syntactic functions (subject, object) and show asymmetric patterns of acquisition and processing, which have been explained by linear distance, structural distance and input factors. Thirty-two child Turkish HS (ages 6–15) and 48 …
Sources of variability in the acquisition of Differential Object Marking by Turkish heritage language children in the United States
Differential object marking (DOM) is an area of vulnerability in adult heritage speakers. This study traces such vulnerability to childhood by examining Turkish DOM in child Turkish heritage speakers in the U.S and the parental generation, who are the main input providers. Twenty first-generation immigrants, 20 adult and 20 child (aged 7–14) Turkish heritage speakers, and the monolingual group including 20 Turkish-speaking adults, 20 7–14-year-ol…
