粤方言区儿童普通话句法习得的个案研究
A Case Study on Children’s Acquisition of Mandarin Syntax in Cantonese-Speaking Communities

本文对粤方言区一名儿童(1;10~2;7)习得汉语普通话的句法情况进行观察和分析，发现儿童在此期间的句法发展迅速，句子明显增长，句式呈多样化，逐渐习得人称代词、指示代词、否定词和连动结构等；还针对儿童语言习得的几个理论问题展开讨论，采用“渐变学习演算系统”对儿童语言习得过程中的自由变体现象进行解释。
An observation of a child’s (1;10~2;7) acquiring mandarin syntax has been made in the Canton-ese-speaking communities. A rapid syntactic development has been discovered, including a signifi-cant lengthening of utterance, a diversity of syntactic structure, and a gradual acquisition of pro-nouns, negative words and verbal structure. More theoretical issues are further discussed, and the Gradual Learning Algorithm is used to account for the free variation in child language acquisition.
