How do Mandarin-speaking children learn shape classifiers? ...

Abstract: Mandarin is a classifier language. A classifier is inserted between a number and a noun for the purpose of quantification (e.g., 一条绳子 one tiáo rope). Each classifier marks semantic characteristics of the noun with which it co-occurs (e.g., 条 tiáo is typically paired with long, narrow and flexible objects). The semantic system of classifiers is complex, and classifier production is a vulnerable area for Mandarin-speaking children (e.g., Hao et al., 2018). However, it is unclear what learning mechanisms drive the acquisition of classifiers in Mandarin-speaking children. In the present study, we explored potential predictors, namely classifier-based semantic categorization and input frequency of classifiers. In addition, we hypothesized that existing vocabulary knowledge would be related to classifier learning. Sixty-four typically-developing monolingual Mandarin-speaking children between 4;1 (year;month) and 6;5 completed two background tasks and two experimental tasks. The background tasks consisted of an ...
