| Summary: |
In response to my query a while back about the literature on Japanese first language acquisition, I received many requests to publish a summary, but only one informative response, that from Lynn Santelmann of the University of Wisconsin. She offers the following: (Lynn Santelmann wrote:)------------- [T]he article by Patricia Clancy in the Slobin volumes on the Crosslinguistic Study of Language Acquisition (... V. 1)... gives a general introduction to the characteristics of Japanese child language. You might also consider posting a query to the Info-CHILDES list run by Brian MacWhinney at Carnegie Mellon. It's a list serve primarily for child language researchers. To subscribe, send an e-mail to: macw@cmu.edu There is a Japanese corpus that has been contributed to the CHILDES system by Susanne Miyata. So you can go to the CHILDES site look at that data as well - making sure you cite the original researcher (I think she also wants to be notified if someone uses her data, even without publishing.) - ---------------------------------- I thank Lynn for her help. To Lynn's response I can add: Sanches, Mary Mildred. 1968. Features in the Acquisition of Japanese Grammar. (PhD dissertation available from UMI Dissertation Services.) This is all I have come up with so far. (I was hoping that perhaps work in this area had been done in Japan by Japanese researchers.) Since this seems to be a topic of interest to a number of people, I will post another summary later if I come up with more information.
