PHONETIC, GRAMMATICAL AND LEXICAL SPECT OF THE LOW SCHOOL AGE CHILD LANGUAGE

Summary/Abstract: Language is defined as a communication system that uses words, both written and spoken, and a particular way of combining them. In other words we may say that the genuine language is made up of vocabulary and grammar. The vocabulary comprises all the words in a language that have meaning. It is known that in speech there are two categories of sounds: vowels and consonants (also known as phonemes). Vowels are proper sounds (musical sounds) and they originate in continuous air emission which causes the vocal chords to vibrate. The differences among the vowels depend on the form the mouth takes and on the position of the tongue when pronouncing. Since the learning of reading requires the correct differentiation of all the phonemes of the language, the teacher will try to improve the children’s speech hearing and the functions of the phonatory system (articulation). Therefore systematic exercises of phonetic analysis of the words are necessary, as well as those of distinguishing the sounds in syllables and words, of finding words with identical mutual sounds.
