| Abstract: | The paper investigates the comprehension of right-branching relatives in child Romanian on the basis of experimental data coming from three binary picturematching tasks. The asymmetry between the comprehension of subject relatives and direct object relatives is accounted for in terms of computational overload. Children’s non-target responses to direct object relatives are interpreted as reflecting their immature capacity of fully integrating language knowledge with extralinguistic cues. The results reveal that different pieces of syntactic knowledge are employed differentially through development. |
