Clues

  • Adult uses language that's slightly above the child's own level of understanding this will help the child understand and use more complex language (Keenan 2002) (4, 11)
  • Begins when children are around 4, possibly linking to cognitive understanding. They use feild specific lexis, and structure them in formulaic ways, so observe and imitate adult behaviours. (13, 4)
  • Children base overextension on two things. 1. the physical qualities of an object. 2. features such as taste, sound, movement, shape, size and texture. (3, 5, 5, 5)
  • Repeated spell or sequence of events. (5, 8, 7)
  • Repetition of the same consonant sound. (5, 12)
  • Repetition of the same vowel sound. (5, 9)
