Description

Focusing on school-age children's knowledge of morphology and word formation, this monograph presents a detailed analysis of vocabulary development among six- to ten-year-olds. Among the results discussed here is the significant distinction between recognizing words that were previously learned, and figuring them out by means of morphological analysis. The author's argument of the importance of morphological knowledge to children's lexical growth will intrigue child development specialists, linguists, and educators alike.
