Title: Development of constructed phrases in a child with language impairment
Abstract: AbstractThe emerging use of constructed utterances by a pre-school boy who initially used single words and routine phrases is described during a 7-month period, from 4;8-5;3. Emerging constructed phrases were consistent with a mixture of gestalt and analytic acquisition strategies. Some constructed phrases were variations on earlier routine phrases, and others were combinations of words that did not appear in earlier routines. Discussion of the child's course of language development is related to the literature on typical language acquisition and a model of language development in individuals with autism.KeywordsWord Combinations Formulae Language Acquisition Language Impairment
