Abstract(in Japanese) (See Japanese page)
Abstract(in English) While the Japanese reflexive zibun can be bound both locally and across clause boundaries (Inoue 1976 among many), the third person pronoun kare cannot take a local antecedent. However, we show that in speech to children long-distance reflexive zibun and pronoun kare do not occur, leading us to ask about children’s knowledge. We show that children, unlike adults, incorrectly reject the long-distance antecedent for zibun, while being able to access this antecedent for a pronoun kare.
