Question
Which example characterizes the use of
autonomous language?
I am thinking example A,but I'm not sure
1. Mary,age four,says to her mother,
"I would like a banana,please," instead
of pointing or using other sounds and
gestures to get the banana.
2. When three-year-old Alfonso is thirsty,he points to the water faucet
or to an empty glass.
3. Four-year old Ling shows her appreciation for a treat her mother
has given her by smiling and nodding her
head up and down.
4. At three,Jeremy has learned to say,"banana," with the correct pronunciationof all three syllables.
