First steps in the acquisition of Spanish stress
This article uses longitudinal data from four Mexican-American children to explore two aspects of the acquisition of Spanish word stress that precede and accompany learning of the stress system itself. First, contrary to Allen & Hawkins' proposed universal ‘trochaic bias’ (Allen 1982, Allen & Hawkins 1977, 1979, 1980), it is shown that children have a ‘neutral start’ in stress learning: they approach the task of stress learning unbiased towards a…
Learning Spanish Stress: Developmental and Theoretical Perspectives
This paper uses spontaneous and imitated speech data from 50 Mexican-American preschoolers to demonstrate that children learning Spanish as a first language learn rules for assigning stress, as opposed to simply memorizing stress on a word-by-word basis. From a developmental perspective, this finding is taken as an indication that children's propensity to hypothesize linguistic rules is so strong as to take effect even when rules are not needed t…

Children's judgements of transitivity errors
Diary studies of English, Hebrew and Portuguese have led to debate on whether there is directionality in children's transitivity errors – that is, whether children are as likely to coin intransitives from transitives (* Bert knocked down ) as they are transitives from intransitives (* I falled my cup ). The judgements made by 3- and 4-year-olds showed a strong bias in favour of innovative transitives in English. It is argued that this bias result…
Functional Compensation for /s/ Deletion in Puerto Rican Spanish
The role of functional processes in language is examined in the context of an empirical study of /s/ deletion in Puerto Rican Spanish. Deletion of /s/ from 2sg. verb forms is shown to result in exceptionally high use of subject pronouns, especially with those verb forms rendered ambiguous by /s/ deletion. These findings are shown to fit in with a general tendency in Puerto Rican Spanish to use pronouns functionally as well as stylistically
