Consonants, vowels and levels of specification in the phonological representations of the first lexicon: a review.

A review of the main studies on the format of lexical representation in the initial stages of language development is presented. Current investigations reveal a significant level of phonological specificity in the representation of words in the first lexicon, even before age two years. These results...
