Abstract:
This dissertation investigates the acquisition of particle verbs in Dutch.
Based on longitudinal child data it shows how children acquire lexical
categories V, A and P and how they acquire the complex predicate status of
particle verbs. It shows that the acquisition of categories A and P is
dependent on the acquisition of category V and that the acquisition of
category V is tightly connected to the acquisition of verb-second. It is the
acquisition of this verb-second that also leads to the acquisition of the
complex predicate status of particle verbs. It further shows that the
acquisition process inevitably leads children into overgeneralisation of
preposition stranding, but that the same acquisition process also inevitably
leads children out of it. This dissertation further presents data from
experiments with adult speakers that shed an interesting light on the role
this overgeneralisation still plays in the adult grammar. Investigating the
acquisition of particle verbs cannot be done without taking a closer look at
the acquisition process itself. As such, this dissertation also addresses more
general questions concerning the acquisition process, such as the role of the
lexicon and of generalizations. It shows an acquisition process in which the
child makes use of pragmatic ootstrapping and syntactic cueing to build layer
upon layer of grammar without the need of inherently, specifically linguistic
knowledge. This dissertation will be of interest to anyone working on language
acquisition, the syntax of particle verbs and preposition stranding, and the
interaction between syntax and information structure.
