<p>Hi Huseyin,<br></p>
<p>I have done some work on young children's (ages 2-6) metaphor comprehension, using the conceptual metaphor theory as a framework, and will be happy to share my papers with you if you are interested. My email is: <a href="mailto:seyda@gsu.edu" target="_blank">seyda@gsu.edu</a><br>

<div dir="ltr"><font color="#444444" face="georgia, serif">Dear all,<br><br>First of all, I would like to express my excitement about posting my first question in this group (Of course, after reading the older posts).<br>
<br>I have been reading about Prototype Theory of Eleanor Rosch, which is the point of departure for my M.A thesis, within the frame of child language development. Then I suddenly found myself trying to design steps for (an) experiment(s) in idiom comprehension. I am partly aware of the literature in figurative language processing (thanks to the comprehensive chapter by Gibbs and Colston in <a href="http://www.sciencedirect.com/science/book/9780123693747" target="_blank">http://www.sciencedirect.com/science/book/9780123693747</a>). So my questions are as follows:<br>
</font>
<ul><font color="#444444" face="georgia, serif">
<li>What is the direction of research in idiom comprehension in child language?</li>
<li>Could you suggest me some seminal works in idiom comprehension, or more generally figurative language?</li>
<li>Is there anyone to help me revise my experimental design?</li>
<li>What kind of an effect could prototypicality of concepts in idioms have on children's comprehension? (Feel free to share your criticism or advice, if you prefer to look at this research question from another perspective.)</li>
</font>
<li><font color="#444444" face="georgia, serif">A third research field having just popped into my mind is child directed speech. In what way can I integrate it into my research?</font></li></ul><font color="#444444" face="georgia, serif">
