Direct negative evidence in language acquisition consists of utterances that indicate whether a construction in a language is ungrammatical. [1] Direct negative evidence differs from indirect negative evidence because it is explicitly presented to a language learner (e.g. a child might be corrected by a parent). Direct negative evidence can be ...
