Tulu-speaking children, Vocabulary development, Parental report, Language acquisition, vocabulary test.

Vocabulary development is a crucial component of language acquisition and significantly contributes to children’s communication and academic performance. However standardized vocabulary assessment tools for Tulu-speaking children are limited. Therefore, the present study aimed to develop a vocabulary list for typically developing (TD) Tulu-speaking children aged 4–6 years and to examine age-related differences in vocabulary acquisition across various semantic categories. A total of 26 TD Tulu-speaking children participated in the study including 13 children in the 4–5 years age group and 13 children in the 5–6 years age group. A structured vocabulary checklist based on parental reports was developed comprising categories such as animals, birds, fruits, vegetables, food items, vehicles, body parts, toys, and common items. Parents identified whether each word was present or absent in their child’s expressive vocabulary and the obtained data were analyzed using mean, standard deviation, percentage analysis, and independent sample t-tests. The results demonstrated a progressive increase in vocabulary performance with advancing age with children in the 5–6 years age group showing higher mean scores across most semantic categories. Furthermore, statistically highly significant differences were observed in the majority of vocabulary domains indicating substantial lexical growth between the two age groups although categories such as trees and verb modifiers did not show significant differences. Additionally, the developed Tulu vocabulary list may serve as a culturally appropriate clinical tool for identifying children at risk for receptive and expressive language difficulties. Developed vocabulary list may also provide speech-language pathologists (SLPs) with a culturally relevant resource for evaluating expressive vocabulary in Tulu-speaking children. In the absence of standardized assessment tools, such language-specific measures can support the early identification of vocabulary delays and facilitate evidence-based intervention planning. Consequently, the present vocabulary list has the potential to enhance clinical assessment, monitor language development and support effective service delivery for Tulu-speaking children.
