| Rezumat: | This paper reviews data from acquisition of Romanian attempting to establish whether Romanian children go through an Optional Infinitive stage similarly to children acquiring English, Dutch, French, etc. In the first sub-chapter, a brief presentation of OI- related Romanian adult grammar properties is provided: the non-finite forms in Romanian and their context as well as of other phenomena discussed in relation with non-finite forms in the OI literature (null subject, negation, clitics). The second sub-chapter reviews the theories put forward by linguists studying the OI phenomenon underlining the implications for the acquisition of Romanian. The third subchapter presents an analysis of the longitudinal corpus provided in the CHILDES database for Romanian. Ungoverned non-finite forms present in the corpus are analysed in relation to other properties of child grammar: null auxiliaries, copula be omission, clitics omission, auxiliary omission. Statistic data as well as utterance samples are provided. In the second part of this sub-chapter the predictions for Romanian resulting from the theories reviewed in sub-chapter two are checked against the findings. |
