Includes bibliographical references

This study extends the development of automatic digital tools to analyze child language data to Haitian Creole (HC) by developing a tagger adapted to the study of the pattern of acquisition of HC morphosyntax. Although HC is the `Creole' language with the highest number of speakers and of a growing proportion of people in the US, especially in Miami and in New York City, until now no study has focused of the acquisition of HC morphosyntax by young children.

520 $a This study extends the development of automatic digital tools to analyze child language data to Haitian Creole (HC) by developing a tagger adapted to the study of the pattern of acquisition of HC morphosyntax. Although HC is the `Creole' language with the highest number of speakers and of a growing proportion of people in the US, especially in Miami and in New York City, until now no study has focused of the acquisition of HC morphosyntax by young children.
520 $a Study 1 aimed at testing the adequacy of current descriptions of HC morphosyntax on the spoken standard Port-au-Prince variety. It involved the development of the tagger and the transcription and analyses of an adult corpus that reflects an informal register and the standard variety. The categories based on current linguistic analyses of HC appeared adapted to the analyses of this first corpus.
520 $a Study 2 tests the tagger on child language production samples. A semantic fluency task and a video elicitation tasks were administered to 20 native HC speaking children between the ages of 2;5;6 and 5;9;9 in Port-au-Prince. They were transcribed in the CHAT (MacWhinney, 2000) format and analyzed using two CLAN functions (to obtain lexical density and Mean Length of Utterances in Words) and the tagger that led to the categorization of words into distinct lexical categories and function words.
520 $a These two tools provided quantitative results that helped distinguish between the semantic fluency task and the video elicitation tasks. They were also able to successfully capture developmental patterns in the acquisition of HC such as the positive correlations between chronological age and MLU, percentages of verbs and percentage of function words and correlations between MLU and percentages of verbs and function words.
