(Dis)fluencies in children’s speech

Participants, material, method

For the analysis, three speakers were recorded. Two children, a girl and a boy, read aloud nonsense words in four recording sessions within the course of 2 years. The girl was 7;5, 7;11, 8;5 and 8;10 years old, the boy was 11;0, 11;6, 12;0 and 12;5 years old at the time of the recording sessions. An adult control person (aged 43 years) was also included in the study, but she was recorded only once. The child participants’ socioeconomical background was technically the same, as they were siblings. The adult control was their mother. No speech of hearing deficit or disorder was reported by any of the participants. All three speakers were native, monolingual speakers of Hungarian.

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
