本研究通过对发展中的塔加洛语-西班牙语-英语三语儿童语言选择的纵向分析，探讨了猫-语三语发展中的语用差异。分析儿童1岁时不同语言使用者的语言选择模式；10和2；(1)是否可以在两岁之前和在与不同语言使用者的同时互动中发现语用差异的证据；(2)词汇差距是否决定了儿童对一种语言的选择；(3)她的语言选择模式是否受到对话者语言使用和混合反应的影响。结果表明，儿童从最早的会话中就有能力根据对话者的语言选择合适的语言。然而，由于词汇缺口、对话者对混合的接受程度以及多种词汇资源和多种语言使用者的存在所决定的可能性，向不适当语言的转换是常见的。
This study examines pragmatic differentiation in cat-IN, trilingual development through a longitudinal analysis of language choice in a developing Tagalog-Spanish-English trilingual child. The child's patterns of language choice with different language users are analyzed at age 1; 10 and 2; 4 to examine: (1) whether evidence for pragmatic differentiation can be found even before age two and in simultaneous interactions with distinct language users; (2) whether lexical gaps determine the child's choice of one language over another; and (3) whether her patterns of language choice are affected by the interlocutors language use and their responses to mixing. The results indicate that the child was capable of selecting the appropriate language according to the interlocutors' language from the earliest sessions. However, switches to Inappropriate languages were common due to vocabulary gaps, the interlocutors' acceptance of mixing and the possibilities determined by the existence of multiple lexical resources and multiple language users.
