| Outline of Final Research Achievements |
Our study investigate young children’s ability to exploit prosodic information (pitch accent change) to i) predict/facilitate the structural information in a same way as adults, in an ambiguity between a single noun and compound, and ii) adults and children always share a common understanding of what certain prosodic phenomena signal with respect to morpho-syntactic, syntactic or semantic representations. It also addressed the question as to whether and to what extent different individuals interpret the same prosodic cue in different ways.
