Sažetak
In this paper, the development of modal expressions in the acquisition of Croatian is analyzed using data from three monolingual children aged 1 ; 0 to 3 ; 0, while taking child- directed speech into consideration. In the premorphological period of language acquisition, a high percentage of imperatives expressing modality was observed. In the subsequent protomorphological period, more complex forms appeared, such as constructions with modal verbs, and more diverse modal meanings were expressed, including indirect or polite requests as well as wishes, promises and possibilities.
