Apuntes sobre la adquisición de la morfosintaxis del euskera en niños de 2 y medio a 5 años

This article aims to describe the acquisition sequence of three components of morphosyntactic development in the Basque language (verbal morphology, case morphology, and complex sentences) from the ages of 2.6 to 5.0 years. This sequence was obtained from a two-stage investigation: A first stage, with a longitudinal-sequential design, and a second stage, with a cross-sectional design. The data were obtained by observation in a natural context and the experimental paradigm of elicited imitation, respectively. The data obtained were pooled to establish the ages of emergence and acquisition of the three morphosyntactic components studied and were then organized into periods of 6 months of age to show the developmental sequence.
