Examines the use of clitic pronouns by incipient bilingual Spanish-speaking 4- and 5-year-old children with and without language impairments (SLI). Participants included 10 children with specific language impairment and 10 children with typical language development. Children with SLI used clitic pronouns less frequently than their age-matched peers and were less accurate in their use of gender agreement for clitics. (Author/VWL)
