Sažetak
Research has been carried out on 14 children with specific language impairment and 14 children with normal language development. All children were Slovene speaking, monolingual and matched by sex, socio-ekonomic status and school environment. Hypothesis was, that differences between SLI children and children with NLD exist in the domain of narration. Narration text that were acquired with unstructured encouragment (recount) were analysed on the basis of the following variables: total number of statements, number of compound sentences, number of connectors and number of stimulations. It was established statisticaly significant differences between the groups in the total space of variables of the narration text, analysed on microlinguistic level. It can thus be assumed that due to the specific deficit in the language area, children with specific language impairment aged around ten exibit all the characteristics of lesser quality, with difficulties in structuring the narration into language form.
