Understanding Development and Disorder in Cantonese using Language Sample Analysis is a comprehensive resource that brings together 20 years of research on typical development and Development Language Disorder (DLD) in Cantonese. The book begins with a succinct overview of Cantonese, a popular variety of Chinese, a Sino-Tibetan language. The second chapter introduces a new framework of the Grammatical Analysis of Cantonese Samples (GACS), which is developed on the basis of functionalist and usage-based theories of language and language development. The third chapter reports on a quantitative analysis and a qualitative description of the development of Cantonese in preschool children using the GACS framework. The book concludes with a chapter that presents the linguistic profile of a Cantonese-speaking child with DLD and illustrates how to make decisions on intervention targets based on grammatical and error analysis.
This book is a valuable addition to the typological diversity of studies in both child language development and disorder. It is informative for students and practitioners of speech and language therapy, students in early childhood education and Chinese linguistics, and researchers in child language development and disorders. The GACS framework provides a valuable tool for analyzing Cantonese language samples and understanding the development of Cantonese in children with DLD. The quantitative analysis and qualitative description of the development of Cantonese in preschool children using the GACS framework provide valuable insights into the linguistic characteristics of Cantonese and the challenges faced by children with DLD. The linguistic profile of a Cantonese-speaking child with DLD illustrates the specific difficulties that these children may encounter in language development and the interventions that can be effective in addressing these difficulties.
Overall, Understanding Development and Disorder in Cantonese using Language Sample Analysis is a comprehensive and informative resource that will be of interest to students, practitioners, and researchers in the field of child language development and disorders.
