Message 1: Re: 9.267, Sum: Japanese L1 Acquisition

There is a large literature in Japanese on Japanese L1 acquisition.
Keiko Nakamura has summarized much of it in her recent dissertation:
"The acquisition of communicative competence by Japanese children: The
development of sociolinguistic awareness" (University of California,
Berkeley, 1997). She is now doing further research in Japan, with
Yukio Otsu, who has done major research on Japanese acquisition in a
GB framework. Nakamura's e-mail is: WY1aol.com.
