Uma análise da compreensão de metonímia em fase de aquisição da linguagem

In this study, we investigated the comprehension of metonymy with children aged 3 to 8 years old, by replicating the method of the Köder and Falkum (2020) study, from the Cognitive Linguistics perspective. In the test, 133 participants, children and adults, were exposed to a visual stimulus, which c...

Sumario:In this study, we investigated the comprehension of metonymy with children aged 3 to 8 years old, by replicating the method of the Köder and Falkum (2020) study, from the Cognitive Linguistics perspective. In the test, 133 participants, children and adults, were exposed to a visual stimulus, which consists of a set of images, and an auditory stimulus, which consists of a literal or metonymic vignette. The results obtained in this work partially corroborate the result of the original study (Köder; Falkum, 2020), in which there was a significant difference in the comprehension of metonymy in the different age groups studied. Here, the level of metonymic comprehension of this task did not increase at 6 years of age, as in the replicated study, and some hypotheses for this change are formulated. Also, the 8-year-old children's level of comprehension turned out not to be similar to the comprehension of the adult control group. In addition, significant differences were also found between the literal and metonymic conditions, regarding the levels of comprehension. From this general result, issues that may have led to this result are discussed, involving both age and linguistic cultural influences.
