|
In the present study, the production of grammatical morphemes of Korean-speaking children with and without developmental language impairments was investigated. Ten children with language impairments (LI) (CA: 4; 4-6; 11, LA: 3; 6-5; 10) and 10 normal children (CA: 3;1-6;3 LA: 3;5-5;11) with matched language abilities participated in the study. Sixty pairs of pictures were used to elicit 12 types of predetermined grammatical morphemes. The two pictures of a pair were designed to elicit two sentences of the same sentence structure. After the investigator described one picture of a pair; the children were asked to describe the other picture. The LI children made more errors than the normal children in the production of 6 types of grammatical morphemes including; locative case marker, derive case marker, two connective endings of predicates representing cause and goal, and suffixed for passive and causative verbs. However, the LI children produced some grammatical morphemes as accurately as the normal children. The two groups were similar in their error patterns. Some explanations for Korean-speaking LI children´s use of grammatical morphemes were suggested.
