Description
Summary:Frontmatter --Contents --Introduction --The comprehension of coherence relations in expository texts at the age of 10 and 12 --Short sentences, easy to read? Effects of connectives and layout on text comprehension by beginning readers --Explicit coherence relations in children's and adults' spoken narratives: the importance of und for the acquisition of German connectives --Text organization in typically developing bilinguals and bilinguals at risk of DLD: what is different and how language independent is it? --Referential coherence: Children's understanding of pronoun anaphora. Insights from mono- and bilingual language acquisition --Reference in French and German: A developmental perspective --The use of pronouns as a developmental factor in early Russian language acquisition --Index
This book combines studies on referential as well as relational coherence and includes approaches to written and to spoken language, to production and to comprehension, to language specific and to cross-linguistic issues, to monolingual, bilingual and L2-acquisition. The theoretical issues and empirical findings discussed are of importance not only for theoretical linguistics, but also have a broad potential of practical implication
