Acquisition of Egyptian Arabic As a Native Language, Paperback by Omar, Margaret K., ISBN 1589011686, ISBN-13 9781589011687, Brand New, Free P&P in the UK This is a reprint of Omar's 1968 dissertation on language acquisition. Most studies up to then had dealt exclusively with Indo-European languages. Omar (Arabic, Georgetown University) chose a town with little variation in socio-economic levels. She noted the stages of development of particular grammatical forms both in terms of complexity and socialization. Children in the study developed language at roughly the same stages as in other languages, implying that language learning is hardwired. Omar details the process with translations and transliterations of the forms. Annotation ©2008 Book News, Inc., Portland, OR ()
