Specialist Vocabulary of Early School Age Students. Interests and Experiences Recorded in Language
Abstract
The article addresses the subject of specialist vocabulary, an element of every person’s idiolect. The author attempts to present a thesis, based on the analysis of up-to-date literature from the field of
psychology, pedagogy and linguistics, that its development is a result of individual interests and experiences collected in various life situations, starting from early stages of development. Its first
manifestations can be seen in preschool-aged children, which is corroborated by the existing research on children’s language development. The author starts her reflections by presenting issues
related to the formation of individual interests and experiences as important factors in the expansion of the individual vocabulary of a person. She proceeds to note the specific nature of childhood vocabulary development, underlining the quantitative and the qualitative aspect of expanding one’s vocabulary. She treats these issues as the background for presenting specialist vocabulary, i.e. professional language from various disciplines of science, art and sport. The author concludes her reflections
with examples of early school age students’ utterances about their interests. She presents and
analyses the children’s utterances, showing the wealth and variety of specialist vocabulary related to
history, sport, art, dance and theatre used by young school students. The final part includes guidelines and suggestions for teachers working with children of early school age.
