Abstract

Researchers have engaged in a spirited debate regarding the Acquisition of Relative Clauses for the past two decades (de Villiers, Tager Flusberg, Hakuta & Cohen, 1979,Sheldon, 1974,Slobin, 1971,Tavakolian, 1981). Early studies on the comprehension of Relative Clauses, referred to as RCs, utilized interactive tasks involving toys, revealing that children performed randomly until the age of five. However, a subsequent study by Hamburger & Crain (1982) on American children, which controlled for probable processing and pragmatics effects in experimental tasks, demonstrated that four-year-olds exhibited comprehension and production abilities above chance levels. Similarly, a later study by Crain et al. (1990) observed the production of such sentences by two-and three-year-old Italian children. The conflicting findings in studies on RC Acquisition have prompted extensive research primarily focused on postnominal languages like English, German, and other European languages (Sheldon, 1974,Flynn & Lust, 1980,Tavakolian, 1981,Goodluck & Tavakolian, 1982,Hamburger & Crain, 1982,Lebeaux, 1990,Labelle, 1990,1996). Conversely, there is a scarcity of studies on the L1 Acquisition of RCs in prenominal languages. It is crucial to consider typologically diverse languages (e. g., Arnon, 2010,Courtney, 2006,Ozeki & Shirai, 2010) to ascertain both the universal and specific aspects of language Acquisition.
