These languages mark different contrasts between discourse, clausal and existential contexts of negation. Negation in these languages also interacts with aspect and modality. Children acquiring K&#8217;iche&#8217; use an internal form of clausal negation while children acquiring Yucatec and Q&#8217;anjob&#8217;al use an external form of clausal negation. The K&#8217;iche&#8217; and Yucatec children successfully mark the contrast between the discourse and clausal forms of negation. The data show that children in each language create their own forms of negation.]]></p></abstract>

<abstract abstract-type="short" xml:lang="fr"><p><![CDATA[Résumé: Sont présentées les données des formes précoces de négation dans trois langues mayas : k'iche', yucatèque, et q'anjob'al. Ces langues marquent différents contrastes entre les contextes discursif, phrastique et existentiel de négation. La négation dans ces langues interagit aussi avec l'aspect et la modalité. Les enfants qui acquièrent la langue k'iche' utilisent une forme interne de la négation à un niveau phrastique, alors que les enfants qui acquièrent le yucatèque et la langue q'anjob'al utilisent une forme externe de la négation à un niveau phrastique. Les enfants qui acquièrent le k'iche' et le yucatèque marquent d'une manière satisfaisante le contraste entre les formes de négation discursive et phrastique. Les données montrent que les enfants dans chaque langue créent leurs propres formes de négation.]]></p></abstract>
