Abstract:

This book presents diverse, original research studies on typical and atypical
child language acquisition in monolingual, bilingual and bi-dialectal
settings, with a focus on development, assessment and research methodology.
Languages investigated in the studies include underrepresented languages, such
as Farsi, Greek, Icelandic, isiXhosa, Maltese, Mandarin and Slovene, without
excluding representative work in major languages like English and Spanish. The
language areas of focus are phonology, lexicon, morphology and syntax and the
book incorporates studies in under-researched language impairment, such as
Obstructive Sleep Apnea Syndrome and language impairment in 22q11.2 Deletion
Syndrome. The book has practical significance in that it proposes tools and
assessment practices that are of universal crosslinguistic relevance while
also dealing with language-specific complications. The studies presented
enhance existing knowledge and stimulate answers on what the acquisition of
disparate languages in different contexts can teach us about
language/communication development in the presence or absence of disorder.
