The study aimed to investigate the age of acquisition for the first five words Slovenian-speaking infants and toddlers say and the lexical and semantical characteristics of those words. Methods: An online survey was conducted with 126 parents of Slovenian preschool children about early expressive vocabulary. The survey focused on the first five words and the age at which these words were said. Results: The analysis of parental responses showed that the first word in more than half of infants and toddlers occurred before their first birthday. The vast majority, 90 % of toddlers in our sample, had already said at least five words before the age of 18 months. Nouns were the most common word class, followed by verbs and adverbs. Among the first five words, those for naming people from a child’s close environment predominated words for naming other objects and actions. Gender was not statistically significantly associated with the age at first-word acquisition or word-class selection.

Gender was not statistically significantly associated with the age at first-word acquisition or word-class selection. Conclusion: The research provides an insight into the understanding of fundamental questions on expressive vocabulary acquisition of typically developing Slovenian-speaking infants and toddlers. Furthermore, it provides a good foundation for further research and clinical practice with children involved in speech and language therapyIzhodišča: Trenutek, ko dojenček ali malček spregovori prvo besedo, je nepozaben za starše in hkrati pomemben pokazatelj jezikovnega, socialnega in konceptualnega razvoja. Cilj raziskave je bil ugotoviti, pri kateri starosti slovenski dojenčki in malčki spregovorijo prvih pet besed ter kakšne so oblikoslovne in semantične značilnosti teh besed. Metode: Pridobili smo podatke 126 slovenskih staršev, ki so izpolnili spletni vprašalnik o ekspresivnem besednjaku njihovih dojenčkov in malčkov. Našteli so prvih pet besed in dojenčkovo ali malčkovo starost ob pojavu teh besed. Rezultati: Analiza odgovorov je pokazala, da se pri več kot polovici dojenčkov in malčkov prva beseda pojavi pred prvim letom starosti, medtem ko je pri 18. mesecu starosti kar 90 % malčkov iz našega vzorca že povedalo vsaj pet besed. V zgodnjem ekspresivnem besednjaku so prevladovali samostalniki, za njimi pa glagoli in prislovi. Med prvimi petimi besedami so pred poimenovanjem predmetov in aktivnosti prevladovale tiste besede, ki poimenujejo osebe iz bližnje okolice. Spol ni bil statistično značilno povezan s starostjo ob pojavu prve besede ali vrsto prvih besed. Zaključek: Raziskava ponuja vpogled in nam olajša razumevanje temeljnih vprašanj o usvajanju ekspresivnega besednjaka slovensko govorečih dojenčkov in malčkov v pričakovanem razvoju. Hkrati nam to ponuja dobro izhodišče za nadaljnje raziskovalno in klinično delo z otroki, ki se vključujejo v logopedsko obravnavoTEXTznanstveno časopisjejournalsSlovenian National E-content AggregatorNational and University Library of SloveniaUniverzitetni rehabilitacijski inštitut RS – Soča
