中文摘要

本研究目的是在探討兒童口語言談中重複現象之溝通功能。也就是說本研究著重於兒童如何使用重複用法以期達到溝通的目的。參與此研究者為三位以中文為母語之兒童,從兒童自然口語對話中,本研究結果指出兒童口語言談中重複現象是為了傳達訊息、確保對話之進行、回覆對方與增進互動等。這些溝通功能也被視為兒童口語言談中之流暢性之重要因素。此研究結果還指出兒童口語言談中重複現象與文化本身有密切關係。

英文摘要

The aim of this study is to investigate communicative functions of repetition in children interaction. This study looks at how participants use repetitions to meet the communicative needs and maintain conversation. The results of this study indicate that children use repeated forms to convey the message, to maintain a conversation, to show response to the addresser, to create interaction etc. Those functions are viewed as the main contribution to coherence in child discourse. Due to the emphasis of kinship in Chinese culture, this study also shows repeated forms are often used by the younger child of participants in order to confirm the older child's utterance.
