For this purpose, a total of twenty children (from 32 to 42 months) participated in this study. Mother and child dyad were participated in a play session during 20 minutes. The play session was videotaped and the videotaped data were transcribed by CBS(2014). The collected data were analyzed by using a Mann-Whitney test. The main results are as follows. First, there are no significant gender differences in children's MLU-e, MLU-w, MLU-m, and type-token ratio.
