| Abstract(in English) | We investigate whether 5-years-old native Japanese children can effectively use case particles as a cue to map conceptual representations to novel verbs. In a novel experiment, we utilize (1) causative events that involve an Action component as well as a Causative component and (2) event descriptions that are marked by a nominative marker '-GA'. We will discuss how children use case particles as effective cues in figuring out novel-verb meanings comparing with adults mapping. |
