This study examines the distribution of nouns and verbs in maternal speech to one-year-olds. Mothers and children were videotaped during toy play and non-to play. Nouns and verbs in maternal speech were coded for frequency, sentence position and occurence with grammatical inflections. Maternal speech was also coded for utterances that prompted the child to produce a noun or a verb. Frequency of nouns and verbs varied with context. There were more noun types and tokens during toy play, and more verb types and tokens during non-to paly. Nouns accured more often than verbs in shorter maternal sentences, in sentence-final position, and with the fewer grammatical inflections. Mothers also more often prompted their children produce nouns. There was a significant positive correlation between frequency of noun types and tokens during toy play, and the proportion of nouns in children's first 50 words.
