Isi artikel

Data from children (2 male, 1 female) acquiring Spanish are explored for the development of linguistic person in an inflectional language. Constrastive use of person, tense, and number and the presence of overt subjects and overt objects are examined. Recent claims that person emerges before tense and number and that the latter license overt subjects are not supported. Each of the 3 children follows a different route in the development of person, tense, number. The data challenge any theory positing uniformity across children, proposing a maturational seuqences of innately endowed categories for person, tense, and number, or claiming that Universal Grammar links the emergence of any these with the presence of overt subjects.
