The Acquisition of the Croatian Language for Speakers of Roma Language(s)
Although for a long time Croatia has been considered as a monolingual country with the majority of the population speaking the official language - Croatian, over the last few years more attention was paid on different types of bilingual speakers. According to the level of knowledge of the Croatian language, those speakers could be divided into several groups, from balanced bilingual speakers to those who learned Croatian not before they started attending educational institutions. Members of Roma minority belong to the latter group ; they live rather isolated from the Croatian majority and their children speak very little or no Croatian until they come to a pre-school or a school. Since in Croatia Roma children have no possibility of education on their mother tongue and therefore attend classes in Croatian, insufficient level of knowledge of Croatian and of their mother tongue as well, present a great problem. This paper will show certain aspects of the acquisition of Croatian by Roma children which belong to two different Roma language communities. The special emphasis will be on vocabulary acquisition, noun and verb morphology. The influence of L1 on L2 acquisition will also be inquired. Since one of these communities lives in a particularly dialectal region (kajkavian dialect), this paper will also deal with the relation between the dialect and the standard Croatian language.
