| dc.description.abstract | The purpose of this paper is to examine the emergence of pronominal forms in Yoruba. We also examine the order of acquisition and the frequency of use of pronouns as arguments by Yoruba children. Pronouns are words that do not select a referent from the universe of discourse. A pronoun may get its meaning from another word in the sentence. The transition from nominal person reference to pronominal reference is an important milestone in the language acquisition ability of any child. | en_US |
