More recently, stress assignment has become a particular focus of interest. The relation between syllables and stress, however, has yet to be investigated for Italian. In this paper, we describe a new database, STRESYL, that can help researchers to investigate the relation between syllables and stress in Italian. STRESYL offers type and token measures relating stress information to syllable units, both in terms of syllable forms and syllabic structures.

These studies are mainly focussed on “how” a child writes (i.e., on the child’s mastering of sound-to-print conversion rules), rather then on “what” a child writes. The aim of this paper is to “take a photograph” and describe “what” Italian children of elementary school write. The data we present are based on the analysis of a child corpus of written language (Marconi, Ott, Pesenti, Ratti e Tavella, 1994). The words used by children at different grades, the school grade in which they first write a word, and the increment of the written vocabulary from one grade to the next one, were analyzed. The analyses differentiated nouns from verbs. The spoken age-of-acquisition of words was also compared with written age (or order) of acquisition.
