这篇简短的文章讨论了复合参数(TCP; Snyder 1995,2001,2007,2011,2012)的进一步证据,这是一个跨语言变异的建议点,得到了英语习得研究的大量支持。这篇简短的文章提供了新的支持,从儿童的收购德国。德语语法的两个点,应该都依赖于TCP的积极设置,即可分离粒子的建设和新颖的向心复合,被证明是收购一起由每个10个德语学习的孩子。这些数据来自10个纵向语料库的儿童的自发语音从德国部分的儿童(麦克惠特尼2000年)。观察到的相关性仍然非常显着,即使当一般发展的贡献(例如,语言处理能力、概念发展)通过部分相关过程被去除。控制措施加强了这样一种想法,即这些数据反映了两种表面形式对单一语法知识点的共同依赖。因此,德国的研究结果为复合参数提供了强有力的新支持。
This brief article discusses further evidence for the Compounding Parameter (TCP; Snyder 1995, 2001, 2007, 2011, 2012), which is a proposed point of cross-linguistic variation with considerable support from acquisitional studies of English. This brief article provides new support from children’s acquisition of German. Two points of German grammar that should both depend on the positive setting of TCP, namely separable-particle constructions and novel endocentric compounding, are shown to be acquired together by each of 10 German-learning children. These data are drawn from 10 longitudinal corpora of children’s spontaneous speech from the German section of CHILDES (MacWhinney 2000). The observed correlation remains strongly significant even when contributions of general development (e.g., language-processing abilities, conceptual development) are removed by means of a partial correlation procedure. Control measures reinforce the idea that these data reflect shared dependence of two surface forms on a single point of grammatical knowledge. The findings from German therefore lend strong new support to the Compounding Parameter.
