Abstract

The objective of this study was to investigate the variation between CCV and CV syllables in the speech of children with acquisition completed, taking the theoretical assumptions of the Usage-based Phonology and Exemplar Models. In this approach, it is assumed that mental representation is composed of multiple exemplars and that the linguistic structure emerges from the usage. It was used repetition of words, picture naming, story retelling and memory game interaction procedure using figures that represent words with tautosyllabic consonantal clusters. The results indicated that the words had different behavior regarding the cancellation of the vibrant of tautosyllabic clusters in the speech of children with acquisition completed. The factors of individual, word, tonicity, size and token frequency were found to be relevant.
