(Dis)fluencies in children’s speech

Introduction

Filled pauses and filler words (fillers) are connected with prospective and retrospective tasks of speech production (e.g., Shriberg, 2001; Clark & Fox Tree, 2002; Watanabe et al., 2008). They have numerous functions in relation to speakers’ speech planning, execution and to listeners’ speech processing in verbal communication (Sacks et al., 1974; Levelt, 1989; Rose, 1998; Clark, 2002; Clark & Fox Tree, 2002; Dér & Markó, 2010; Fraundorf & Watson, 2011; etc.). They are used to signal disharmonic events in speech planning, handling speech planning difficulties, decisions related to an upcoming word, syntactic boundaries of the utterance, organization of the discourse, turn-takings, remaining on topic, introducing new thought, new information and various other intentions with respect to the speech partner (Swerts, 1998; Arnold et al., 2003; Kidd et al., 2011).

Nyelvészet

Disfluencies (filled pauses, filler words, repetitions, part-word repetitions, prolongations, broken words, and revisions) are natural phenomena of everyday speech. They are insights on the speech planning processes indicating speech planning difficulties or self-monitoring, and play an important role in turn-taking during conversations. The occurrences of disfluencies in speech are affected by several factors. One of these is the speaker’s age. This volume is a collection of nine articles on the topic of speech planning and speech production of children from the aspects of fluency, disfluency, speech tempo, and pausing. The volume is recommended to linguists, experts of phonetics and psycholinguistics, speech and language therapists, university students, child language specialists, and everybody who is interested in child language
