A Study on the Relationship between the Characteristics of Children’s Language Acquisition and the Intrinsic Structural Features of Language: Take the Acquisition of Semantic Types of Double Object Constructions as an Example

The double object constructions in language have different semantic types, which represent meanings such as giving, obtaining, and communication. The semantic types vary among different languages. Some semantic types are common to languages, while others are unique to certain languages. The quantitative distribution pattern of semantic types of double object constructions in languages is an external manifestation of the internal structural features of languages. This paper attempts to explore the relationship between children’s acquisition characteristics of semantic types and the intrinsic structural features of language through corpus research methods. The study found that there is a parallel relationship between them, that is, children usually acquire semantic types that reflect language commonalities earlier, while acquire semantic types that reflect language personality differences later.
