2025 Universal quantifiers in math and late language development in school-aged children Linguistics in the Netherlands 2025, Doreleijers, Kristel, Remco Knooihuizen and Eva van Lier (eds.), pp. 474–490 | Article
Language development research of the past 20 years has revealed that many aspects of semantics and pragmatics are acquired late, not until the school years. In the classroom, word problems in mathematics make extensive use of language. Here, we explore whether math language includes late… read more
2018 Chapter 5. On the acquisition of event culmination Semantics in Language Acquisition, Syrett, Kristen and Sudha Arunachalam (eds.), pp. 95–121 | Chapter
There is quite a high rate of acceptance of telic-perfective predicates as descriptions of non-culminating events in children learning Germanic and Romance languages. What causes children, much more so than adults, to accept non-culminating interpretations of telic-perfective sentences? In this… read more
2014 Development of Dutch children’s comprehension of subject and object wh-questions: The role of topicality Linguistics in the Netherlands 2014, Auer, Anita and Björn Köhnlein (eds.), pp. 129–144 | Article
While Dutch welke ‘which’-questions are structurally ambiguous, number agreement cues can disambiguate them. Despite such agreement cues, children misinterpret object questions as subject questions (Metz et al. 2010, 2012; Schouwenaars et al. 2014). We investigated if adding another cue,… read more

Tense morphology has been found to be cross-linguistically vulnerable in specific language impairment (SLI). Research on the development of aspect is rather limited and results are quite inconsistent; some studies suggest that aspect appears intact (Leonard et al. 2003), while others report severe… read more
2012 Subject interpretation of object questions by Dutch 5-year-olds: The role of number agreement in comprehension Linguistics in the Netherlands 2012, Elenbaas, Marion and Suzanne Aalberse (eds.), pp. 97–110 | Article
We investigated the interpretation of Dutch wie ‘who’- and welke ‘which’-questions in Dutch 5-year-olds. In contrast to wh-questions in many languages, Dutch wh-questions are structurally ambiguous between a subject and an object reading. We used test items in which the ambiguity was resolved by… read more
