The current volume presents a collection of chapters that consider the acquisition of relative clauses with a particular focus on function, typology, and language processing. A diverse range of theoretical approaches and languages are bought to bear on the acquisition of this construction type, making the volume unique in its coverage. The volume will appeal to students and scholars whose interest lies in the acquisition and processing of syntax with a particular focus on complex seTrends in language acquisition research ;v. 8.Language acquisitionAge factorsGrammar, Comparative and generalRelative clausesLanguage awareness in childrenCommunicative competence in childrenLanguage acquisitionAge factors.Grammar, Comparative and generalRelative clauses.Language awareness in children.Communicative competence in children.401/.93ER 920rvkET 730rvkKidd Evan James1721756MiAaPQMiAaPQMiAaPQBOOK9910806887603321The acquisition of relative clauses4121573UNINA
