Stages of Children's Acquisition of Locative and Temporal Deixis
The purpose of this study is to identify the stages of locative and temporal deixis acquisition by children. Modern studies provide some evidence that a certain sequence of personal deixis acquistion exists, but the sequence of locative and temporal deixis acquisition has not been studied yet. In this study, the sequence of locative and temporal deixis acquisition has been detected at first time on the basis of the data of children's spontaneous speech records and on the basis of the experiment. The stages of locative and temporal deixis acquisition have been compared with the stages of personal deixis acquistion.
