“…Thus, when they omitted syllables, it was usually the weak syllable in words with ultimate stress. This phenomenon, which occurred throughout the following stages, is also reported in the literature (Taelman, 2004). Moreover, we should bear in mind that the stages reported in Ben-David (2001) and Adam (2002) are based on studies of more than 10 children.…”

“…Truncation of quadrisyllabic targets to trisyllabic outputs rather than mono-or disyllabic outputs has been reported in other languages including child English, for example, alligator [ hε εdə] (Kehoe, 1999(Kehoe, /2000, child Spanish, for example, /arbolito/ [bo lito] 'little tree' (Gennari & Demuth, 1997) and child Dutch, for example, /helikoptər/ [hejikɔpt] 'helicopter' (Lohuis-Weber & Zonneveld, 1996). That this pattern of truncation is attested across languages indicates that early words are not always subjected to a templatic size restriction -a point already made by several researchers (e.g., Kehoe, 1999Kehoe, /2000Lohuis-Weber & Zonneveld, 1996;Taelman, 2004). Of course, these results do not eliminate the possibility that an earlier stage exists where all long targets are truncated to the most frequent prosodic structures, such as LL.…”

Input Frequency and Word Truncation in Child Japanese: Structural and Lexical Effects

Recent research indicates that the statistical properties of the input have an impact on the prosodic shape of young children's word production. However, it is still not clear whether the effects of input statistics emerge from the frequency of prosodic structures or the frequency of individual lexical items. This issue is investigated in this study by analyzing cases of word truncation spontaneously produced by three Japanese-speaking children (1;5—2;1) and the frequencies of relevant words and prosodic word structures produced by their mothers. A significant correlation was found between children's truncation rates for individual target words and the frequency of the same words in the maternal input, but not between the truncation rates for different prosodic word structures and the frequencies of the corresponding structures in maternal speech. The size and shape of truncated outputs were better explained in terms of their correspondence to the target structures than the frequencies of shorter forms in the input. The results indicate that variation in early word truncation is systematically related at least to the lexical frequency of the target words, and that input frequency has a clearer connection to what truncates than how it truncates.

“…Em Gabriel, nota-se uma tendência ao encurtamento. De acordo com Taelman (2004), no truncamento, há um forte condicionamento prosódico, mas também a influência secundária de fatores como sonoridade do onset (consoante inicial) e a presença ou ausência de coda (posvocálica). Nos dados de Gabriel, observa-se uma tendência àpreservação da sílaba tônica.…”

Este estudo tem por objetivo discutir aspectos fonológicos da emergência da fala em crianças, em fase inicial de aquisição da linguagem, a partir de um estudo longitudinal. Avaliam-se as características fonéticas da produção inicial de quatro crianças, a partir da teoria da Whole-Word Phonology (VIHMAN, 1996), procurando-se discutir quais os padrões motores são usados inicialmente na produção das primeiras palavras. O corpus para esta pesquisa foi obtido a partir da fala espontânea e da nomeação de figuras. A análise dos dados aponta que as formas das primeiras palavras podem ser variáveis para diferentes indivíduos. Foi possível observar a presença de padrões sonoros como CVCV, como uma espécie de resquício do balbucio, a ocorrência de palavras selecionadas do alvo adulto e, em outros sujeitos, a variabilidade, na produção inicial, ocorreu com a tentativa de uso de formas diversas e complexas. Os resultados indicam que a forma sonora inicial das primeiras palavras é variável e aponta caminhos possíveis de aquisição individual.
