Psycholinguistics

Analyze words in early childhood

A. Introduction

Early childhood education today is very influential in the subsequent development of

children. It is associated with cognitive, affective and psychomotor. In a higher stage early
childhood education greatly affects children's competence in obtaining knowledge. In
education, the knowledge conveyed cannot be separated from language teaching because
speaking skills are one of the most important aspects.

 The 2nd and 3rd children found problems in the alveolar ridge using the consonant
letter r
 The 4th child found a problem in the alveolar ridge using the back of the tongue to the
soft palate or velum

Morphological level: The child has no problem producing morphological constructs

Syntactic level: Children are still unable to make complete positive sentence constructs so
that sometimes they drop or miss subjects and predicates.
