Description

Objectives: In this study, we examined the development of adverbial expressions both qualitatively and quantitatively in children with and without hearing loss.<br>Methods: The subjects were 22 school-aged children with normal hearing and 7 children wearing hearing aid devices. They were administered the adverb production task which consisted of 15 short sentences. Subjects were asked to fill in the appropriate adverb as much as possible to qualify the sentence.<br>Results: The results showed that the expression of adverbs increased with age in hearing children both children without and with hearing impairment, however, the latter's use of adverbs differed from that in children with normal hearing.<br>Discussion: We suggest that it is important to take notice the variety of adverbs in the sentence to do adequate language training for children with hearing loss.
