FREQUENT FRAMES 1 Running head: FREQUENT FRAMES Frequent Frames As A Cue For Grammatical Categories In Child Directed Speech
This paper introduces the notion of frequent frames, distributional patterns based on cooccurrence patterns of words in sentences, then investigates the usefulness of this information in grammatical categorization. A frame is defined as two jointly occurring words with one word intervening. Qualitative and quantitative results from distributional analyses of six different corpora of child direc...

متن کامل"Frequent Frames" in German Child-Directed Speech: A Limited Cue to Grammatical Categories
Mintz (2003) found that in English child-directed speech, frequently occurring frames formed by linking the preceding (A) and succeeding (B) word (A_x_B) could accurately predict the syntactic category of the intervening word (x). This has been successfully extended to French (Chemla, Mintz, Bernal, & Christophe, 2009). In this paper, we show that, as for Dutch (Erkelens, 2009), frequent frames...
متن کاملWhat's in the input? Frequent frames in child-directed speech offer distributional cues to grammatical categories in Spanish and English.
Recent analyses have revealed that child-directed speech contains distributional regularities that could, in principle, support young children's discovery of distinct grammatical categories (noun, verb, adjective). In particular, a distributional unit known as the frequent frame appears to be especially informative (Mintz, 2003). However, analyses have focused almost exclusively on the distribu...
متن کاملA universal cue for grammatical categories in the input to children: Frequent frames
How does a child map words to grammatical categories when words are not overtly marked either lexically or prosodically? Recent language acquisition theories have proposed that distributional information encoded in sequences of words or morphemes might play a central role in forming grammatical classes. To test this proposal, we analyze child-directed speech from seven typologically diverse lan...
