Abstract

This article aims at analyzing two different situations in language acquisition data from a Brazilian child (M): a) the one the child modifies her speech because of the error effect in the other’s speech, but the correct form is not produced; b) the one the child modifies her speech because of error effect in the other’s speech, in which the correct form is observed. In other words, the subject displacement is focused from second to the third position in the De Lemos’s proposal (2002). The results show: a) the fundamental role that the other’s speech has in the meaning of the interference in the relation of the child with the language, b) the error and the self-repair are guided by the same processes in language acquisition and c) it is possible to show the beginning of the listening condition in the second situation instead of the impermeability of child’s speech to the correction.
