Clues

  • Closed questions require a yes/no response. Open questions require more detail and thought - closed questions are part of CDS. (10, 9)
  • Grammatically incomplete utterances, often missing out function words. (10, 10)
  • Informal words and phrases (10, 5)
  • Plosives created with both lips e.g. /b/ and /p/. Nasal bilabial plosive - /m/ (8, 7)
  • Questions directed straight to the other participant. When using CDS features, these questions could include the child's name. (6, 9)
  • The repetition of words, either by the child (which could be due to excitement or frustration) or by the parents to reinforce the labelling of an object for example. (7, 10)
  • These indicate the direction of a conversation, words such as: right, now etc. They can indicate a change in topic or activity. (9, 7)
  • These will be indicated in the key (usually shown by ::) elongated sounds can be used to emphasise a word to a child, or can indicate frustration on the part of the child. (9, 6)
  • This can include baby talk such as jim-jams; beddy-byes etc. Adults simplify their lexical choices to meet the child's stage of development; complexity increases as the child becomes more advanced. (10, 5)
  • Utterances which use the passive voice where the subject is not identified e.g. The toy was broken. We do not know who broke the toy. (7, 13)
