And this research concerns with this side. For the problem of this research is built upon testing the rightness of Cheruy's hypothesis which says that the perception of linguistic structures doesn't complete until the age of seven or eight except those simple structures which appear early at the age of two for example.This research aims at knowing that linguistic perception in children from the age of 3 to 7. The sample of this research consist of 120 child from the two sex and from the years 3-4; 4-5; 5-6; 6-7, which are arranged in groups. Each group consists of 30 child from the two sex.The researcher has instruments of research; one of them is a test in a form of ten pairs of words, and the other in a form of vocal records that named by the child who marks the wrong linguistic structures in themThe validity and the reliability of the two instruments have been calculated. And the results of that calculation have shown that there is statistical differences in the development of linguistic perception of the researching groups that are attributed to the element of age. For, it had revealed that the elder children are higher in their linguistic perception. also that the difference between the two sex are not statistically indicative. And that the indication of the word develops early; much earlies that the word itself as a linguistic phenomena.
