Abstract

Dvojezičnost pojedinaca oduvijek je bila prisutna, no u posljednje vrijeme pod utjecajem multikulturaknosti sve je više djece koja imaju dva materinska jezika. Dvojezičnost, odnosno bilingvizam česta je tema istraživanja stručnjaka iz raznih područja. Ovaj rad bavi se temom dvojezičnosti kod djece rane dobi, posebno se usmjeravajući na njihovu jezičnu kreativnost, odnosno produkciju novotvorenica, te se sastoji od dva dijela. U prvom dijelu rada donosi se osvrt na teorijsku podlogu koja je potrebna da bi se tema mogla sustavno istražiti. Pojašnjavaju se pojmovi dvojezičnosti i novotvorenica. Drugi je dio rada empirijsko istraživanje. Uzorak ispitanika bila su dvojezična i jednojezična djeca urednoga govorno-jezičnog statusa, njih jedanaestero, u dobi od tri do šest godina. Šestero je bilo dvojezične i petero jednojezične djece. Četvero dvojezične djece je iz jezično miješanjih obitelji, a dvoje djece je iz jednojezičnih (hrvatskih) obitelji koje žive u prostoru drugoga jezika (u Francuskoj). Cilj je istraživanja usporedba tvorbe novotvorenica u jednojezične i dvojezične djece. Usporedba djece je provedena na način da su se ispitanici grupirali u skupine istog spola i približno iste dobi, u kojima se vršilo ispitivanje dječje jezične produkcije. Djeca su imala zadatak imenovati slike pojmova. Rezultati istraživanja pokazuju kako su dvojezična djeca sklonija tvorbi novotvorenica u usporedbi s jednojezičnom djecom. Mali uzorak ispitanika, glavno je ograničenje u zaključivanju prema dobivenim rezultatima, no ovi rezultati potvrđuju ona znanstvena razmišljanja koja upućuju na pozitivan učinak dvojezičnoga odrastanja na jezičnu kreativnost.

Abstract (english)

Bilingualism in individuals has always been there, but recently there is an increasing number of children who have two mother tongues due to multiculturalism. Bilingualism is a frequent topic of research by experts in various fields. This paper deals with the topic of bilingualism in young children with a special focus on their linguistic creativity, more specifically neologism production. It consists of two parts. The first part of the paper lays out a theoretical background needed to systematically explore the topic. The concepts of bilingualism and neologisms are explained. The second part of the paper is empirical research. The subject sample were bilingual and monolingual children with a regular speech and language developmental status. The research was conducted on a sample of eleven preschool children aged three to six. Six were bilingual and five monolingual. Four bilingual children are from linguistically mixed families, and two children are from monolingual (Croatian) families living in a second language area (in France). The aim of the study is to compare the formation of neologisms in monolingual and bilingual children. The comparison of children was carried out by dividing the subjects into same sex and approximately same age groups, in which the examination of children's language production was conducted. The children were tasked with naming pictures of different objects. The results of the research show that bilingual children are more prone to the formation of neologisms compared to monolingual children. A small subject sample is the main limitation in making conclusions based on the results, but these results confirm those scientific considerations that suggest a positive effect of bilingual upbringing on linguistic creativity.
