Sobre o reconhecimento dos dados linguísticos de um corpus infantil: a comunicação como fator relevante / About the recognition of linguistic data from a children’s corpus: communication as a relevant factor

Abstract

The selection and the recognition of the first vocalizations produced by a child as linguistic data is an arduous topic for research that studies longitudinal children’s corpora. Which children’s sounds should integrate the corpus? Selection, recognition, registration, contextual annotations, and discursive interpretation are subtle choices that are subject to questioning and maturation. This brief essay aims to illustrate the theme with an analysis of examples from the corpus compiled by the group Corpus Infantil Longitudinal (CIL) in according to an interactionist view. The interpretations partially use the list of categories of the Inventory of Communicative Acts-Abridged (1994)
