Overview

Novel corpus data demonstrates overgeneralisation of V2 in bilingual children, suggesting new implications for language stability.

Key Points

  • The study aims to investigate the phenomenon of overgeneralisation of Embedded V2 in bilingual children speaking German and Italian.
  • Analyzed corpus data from 5 German–Italian bilingual children.
  • Identified instances of overgeneralisation of V2 in embedded contexts.
  • Four out of five children systematically overgeneralised V2 in embedded sentences.
  • Data challenges existing theories of bilingual language development based on parameter mis-setting.
