Abstract
El objetivo de esta investigación era determinar el desarrollo del sistema temporal y
aspectual del español, dentro de un proyecto translingüístico con otras cuatro lenguas. Los sujetos participantes en el estudio eran niños de 3, 4, 5 y 9 años, así como un grupo de adultos. Los resultados muestran que desde los 3 años, los niños españoles hacen uso de prácticamente las mismas formas verbales que los niños de 9 años. Este resultado
es interesante porque indica que los niños españoles, desde los 3 años, son sensibles a la naturaleza de la gramática de su lengua, y que incorporan casi todas las formas verbales en su discurso. La complejidad del sistema verbal español no dificulta al niño la adquisición de marcadores temporales y aspectuales, sino que parece que les sirve de estímulo. Los niños pequeños muestran una clara preferencia por el uso de marcadores
morfológicos para indicar nociones temporales que son marcadas por otros dispositivos no morfológicos en el caso de niños mayores y de adultos.
The aim of this study was to assess the development of tense/aspect system in Spanish, within a crosslinguistic project with other four languages. The subjects of the study were 3, 4, 5, and 9 years old children, and a group of adults. Results show that from age 3, Spanish speaking children make use of almost the same verbal forms as 9-year-olds. This is an interesting result because it means that from age 3, children are sensitive to the nature of Spanish grammar, and they include nearly all verbal forms in their dis-course. The complexity of the Spanish verbal sys-tem does not hinder the child from acquiring as-pectual and temporal markers; rather it seems to act as an incentive. Younger children show a clear preference for the use of morphological features to mark notions that older children and adults mark by other non-morphological devices.
