This study presents an exploratory study of the grammatical development in the story-telling task of 32 Mandarin-speaking late talking children and 29 children with typical language development. In a longitudinal study of the children at 5 and 7 years of age, we first focused on children’s production of two specific functional grammatical categories related to Mandarin nouns and verbs: classifiers and aspect markers. The use of adverbs and conjunctions were also investigated. In sum, the longitudinal observations we have made suggest that these late-talking children had delayed grammatical development. Our results provide preliminary empirical data of aspects of grammatical development in Mandarin late-talking children. |
