名词通常比动词更容易学习(例如,)。然而,动词出现在儿童最早的词汇中,造成了一个看似悖论。本文研究了关于名词和动词习得之间差异的一个假设。也许名词的优势不是语法形式类别的功能,而是与单词的形象性有关。在这里,根据麦克阿瑟-贝茨交际发展量表(CDI),单词形象性评级和形式类别(名词和动词)与习得年龄相关。 CDI 习得年龄与词语的形象性评级呈负相关。此外,单词的形象性会影响单词习得年龄的差异,这表明在单词学习之初,形象性可能是单词学习的驱动因素。
Nouns are generally easier to learn than verbs (e.g.,). Yet, verbs appear in children’s earliest vocabularies, creating a seeming paradox. This paper examines one hypothesis about the difference between noun and verb acquisition. Perhaps the advantage nouns have is not a function of grammatical form class but rather related to a word’s imageability. Here, word imageability ratings and form class (nouns and verbs) were correlated with age of acquisition according to the MacArthur-Bates Communicative Development Inventory (CDI). CDI age of acquisition was negatively correlated with words’ imageability ratings. Further, a word’s imageability contributes to the variance of the word’s age of acquisition above and beyond form class, suggesting that at the beginning of word learning, imageability might be a driving factor in word learning.
