The words are organized based on semantic and syntactic categories . 4. Lexical and phrasal categories together are called syntactic categories . 5. Children's ability to identify syntactic categories may be supported by Prosodic bootstrapping. 6. The distribution of a given syntactic unit determines the syntactic category to which it belongs. 7. Additionally, there are also informal criteria one can use in order to determine syntactic categories . 8.
