PRAGMALINGUISTIC FEATURES OF MOTHER SPEECH
Abstract
A number of pragmalinguistic characteristics seen in maternal speech acts are essential to the language development of children. According to research, a mother's speech patterns and purposes can have a big impact on a child's expressive syntax and receptive vocabulary. In particular, children's language outcomes are negatively correlated with their mothers' pragmatic language challenges (1). Additionally, infants' non-linguistic behavioral feedback frequently influences how mothers adapt their speech. This implies that moms might improve communication efficacy by modifying their speech patterns in response to their child's reactions (3)(4). The connection between mother pragmatics and child language development has also been investigated in research on children with autism spectrum disorder (ASD) and non-ASD language delays, emphasizing the role that maternal communication styles play in developing language abilities (5).
