In Hungarian the differences between short and long consonants are
subtle due to various factors (e.g. debate whether length is a
distinctive feature of the language, arbitrary lengthening of short
consonants or abbreviating of long ones), thus it is difficult to
distinguish between them. However, if distinguishing between the
pronunciation of short and long consonantal sounds is difficult,
their representations as single and double letters by means of
spelling must be even more difficult for children. The present
study aims to find out if and to what extent does knowledge of
linguistic constraints aid Hungarian children's spelling by
investigating whether they find it difficult to master the function
between consonant length and their manifestations in spelling as
singletons and doublets. By shedding light to these questions the
study's purpose is to contribute to children's understanding of the
functional relationship between long consonants and doublets.
