Early Acquisition of Verbs in Korean: A Cross-linguistic Study.
Choi, Soonja; Gopnik, Alison
Journal of Child Language, v22 n3 p497-529 Oct 1995
Investigates children's early lexical development in English and Korean and compares caregivers' linguistic input in the two languages. Results indicate that young Korean children use verbs productively with appropriate inflections and that, unlike in English, both verbs and nouns in Korean are dominant categories from the single-word stage.
