  • 2-3 years
    • telegraphic stage 3
      • 1. 2-2 1/2 YEARS: Child is beginning to use sentences with up to four words
        • 4. Questions used: - where daddy go. Commands: put that down there
        • 3. child understands sentence functions; grammatical and semantic developments
      • grammar
        • 3. GRAMMATICAL DEVELOPMENT: Three or more words joined in increasingly complex and accurate orders
          • 4. E.g. Subject  + verb + object/complement/adverbial
        • 1. Huge advances made in grammatical understandings
          • 2. But do not understand irregularities; "ran"' "ate", "slept"
        • 6. Start to pick up non-lexical words, I.e. "and", "but"
          • 5. Learn inflections, word endings   but cannot apply past tense rule correctly "runner"// ran,
          • 7. First coordinators - learn to link clauses together "and"= first
        • E.g.  Stage 1:''No' or 'not' at beginning of sentence: no wear shoes;  stage 2: 'no'/'not' inside sentence: I no want it
          • 8. Between 24-30 months NEGATIVES  (Ursula Bellugi) are used in two word utterance – not good, bad dog 
          • By 36 months negatives are used in middle of utterances – I no do that, mummy no want milk
        • 9. (3 years) still cannot use cause and effect: "I've got one fish left because his name is Bill
          • Irregular tenses: "it just got brokened". Comparative/superlative: "that is more better"
            • Pronouns : girl fell over and hurt herself - meaning is lost because of head-noun
              • Bellugi 2/3 stages: 1: child uses own name I.e. "Tom play" 2: Child  recognise I/me pronoun : "I play toy", "me do that"
    • phonology
      • (2 years) these blends are avoided: "sky, play, gy, prey".
        • 1. Deletion of unstressed syllables - "banana"= "nana", "cat"= "ca". Sounds like neighbouring ones - "yellow"= "lellow", "dog"= "gog"
          • 2. Assimilation: sounds are made like neighbouring ones - e.g. Yellow ="lellow"
