本文表明,一些患有唐氏综合症的人能够产生,模仿(重复)和理解被动句,即使小组研究表明,这不是常态。对10名唐氏综合征青少年进行被动句和主动句的诱发产生、重复和理解的实验测试,结果表明,在10名青少年中,有1名Fa能够产生、模仿和理解被动句。本文假设,当没有理解时,或者当可逆被动句的理解不稳定时,被动句被理解为主动句,因为被动句的第一个名词被解释为动作/非动作的施动者/致使者。这个假设是强有力的,因为它假设主动和被动都有非常相似的初始派生。然而,并没有强有力的证据表明,这9名青少年将被动解释为主动。但是,如果假设他们理解被动语态的机会是由于他们开始理解被动语态,那么可以说,大约50%的时间,唐氏综合症青少年将被动语态解释为主动语态。而法不把被动解释为主动,因为她对被动结构的生产、模仿和再现都很好。
This paper shows that some individuals with Down syndrome are capable of producing, imitating (repeating) and comprehending passive sentences, even though group studies indicate that this is not the norm. Experimental tests of elicited production, repetition and comprehension of passive and active sentences applied in ten adolescents with Down syndrome, speakers of Portuguese, showed that out of the ten adolescents, one, Fa, is able to produce, imitate and comprehend passive sentences. It is hypothesised that, when there is no comprehension, or when the comprehension of reversible passives is unstable, the passive is understood as active, because the first noun of the passive sentence is interpreted as agent/causer of the action/non-action. This hypothesis is strong inasmuch as it assumes that both active and passive have very similar initial derivations. There is not, however, strong evidence that the nine adolescents interpret the passive as active. But if it is assumed that their chance results in comprehension of the passive is due to the fact that they are beginning to understand it, then it could be said that, for around 50% of the time, the adolescents with Down syndrome interpret the passive as active. Fa, on the other hand, does not interpret the passive as active, as she produces, imitates and comprehends the passive structure very well.
