yet_ regulated by the will. Its movements are aimless. _b. Mogilalia._--Children, on account of the as yet deficient control of the external organs of speech, especially of the tongue, can _not yet_ form some sounds, and therefore omit them. They say, e. g., _in_ for "hin," _aetz_ for "Herz," _eitun_ for "Zeitung," _ere_ for "Schere." _Gammacism._--Children find difficulties in the voluntary utterance of K and Ks (_x_), and indeed of G, and therefore often omit these sounds without substituting others; they say, e. g., _atsen_ for "Klatschen," _atten_ for "Garten," _asse_ for "Gasse," _all_ for "Karl," _ete_ for "Grete" (in the second year), _wesen_ for "gewesen," _opf_ for "Kopf." _Sigmatism._--All children are late in learning to pronounce correctly S, and generally still later with Sch, and therefore omit both, or in a lisping fashion put S in place of Sch; more rarely Sch in place of S. They say, e. g., _saf._ in place of "Schaf," _int_ for "singt," _anz_ for "Salz," _lafen_ and _slafen_ for "schlafen," _iss_ for "Hirsch," _pitte_ for "Splitter," _tul_ for "Stuhl," _wein_ for "Schwein," _Tuttav_ for "Gustav," _torch_ for "Storch" (second year), _emele_ for "Schemel," _webenau_ for "Fledermaus," but also _Kusch_ for "Kuss." But in no case have I myself heard a child regularly put "sch" in place of _s_, as _Joschef_ for "Josef." This form, perhaps, occurs in Jewish families; but I have no further observations concerning it as yet. _Rhotacism._--Many children do not form R at all for a long time and put nothing in place of it. They say _duch_ for "durch," _bot_ for "Brot," _unte_ for "herunter," _tautech_ for "traurig," _ule_ for "Ruhe," _taenen_ for "Thraenen," _ukka_ for "Zucker." On the contrary, some form early the R lingual, guttural, and labial, but all confound now and then the first two with each other. _Lambdacism._--Many children are late in learning to utter L, and often omit it. They say, e. g., _icht_ for "Licht," _voge_ for "Vogel," _atenne_ for "Laterne," _batn_ for "Blatt," _mante_ for "Mantel." (2) Literal Pararthria or Paralalia. Children who are beginning to repeat intentionally what is said, often put another sound in place of the well-known correct (no doubt intended) one; this on account of deficient control of the tongue or other peripheral organs of speech. E. g., they say _t_ in place of _p_, or _b_ for _w_ (_basse_ for "Wasser" and for "Flasche"), _e_ for _i_ and _o_ for _u_, as i
