Acquisition of Grammar in Children

A comparative study of passive voice construction in a monolingual and a bilingual kindergarten

Beschreibung

The interest of this work is to find out how children develop different levels of language proficiency, depending on the linguistic environment they are raised in. In our study, twenty-one subjects of one monolingual German and one bilingual German/English kindergarten are tested on comprehension and production tasks on the passive voice. It is assumed that children who are already instructed in a foreign language in kindergarten, perform better on passive voice tasks in their mother tongue than their peers.
