The acquisition of verb inflections in Tamil, an agglutinating language, was investigated in three 2-year-old children. The findings revealed a high percentage use of verb inflections indicating tense, aspect, modality, person, number and gender by all three children. Explanations for this early, almost error-free acquisition are discussed in terms of the facilitating properties of agglutinating languages.
对三名两岁儿童进行了研究,以调查泰米尔语(一种黏着语)中动词词尾变化的习得情况。研究结果显示,这三名儿童对表示时态、体、情态、人称、数和性别的动词词尾变化的使用率很高。根据黏着语的促进特性,对这种早期几乎无错误的习得情况进行了讨论。
