Abstract
The vocabulary of a child in general, and especially age related phraseology in the preschool period and in the lower elementary school grades, is a poorly researchedfield of science although that part of early language development is a typical identity feature of child speech. Even though children use phrasemes quite often in their
personal communication, they still have difficulties in recognizing and interpreting the meaning of certain phrasemes. The main objective of this paper is to examine in what range do the students in the fourth grade of elementary school understand the phrasemes that they hear or that they use in oral communication, can they explain the meaning of those phrasemes and to what extent are phrasemes used in the texts of school reader books. In order to get specific parameters, 94 students, from two schools situated in the area of Brod – Posavina County and Vukovar – Syrmia County, were examined using a questionnaire consisting of three questions.
Keywords
