Johnston, Judith; And Others
Journal of Speech and Hearing Research, v33 n2 p335-42 Jun 1990
Sixteen children, aged 7:8 to 9:10, learned 2 miniature languages differing in word order. Children found the Subject-Object-Verb language easier than the Verb-Subject-Object language; they also made more suffix errors and fewer word order errors in the Subject-Object-Verb language. (Author/DB)
