Unlocking ChatGPT's Potential to Promote Gender‐Inclusive Language
A global shift toward gender‐inclusive language has led to the wide use of singular they as the preferred epicene pronoun. However, many learners continue to rely predominantly on generic he and he or she . Given that ChatGPT is trained largely on datasets from English‐as‐a‐first‐language (L1) speakers, among whom singular they has been broadly embraced, it may serve as a useful resource for modeling gender‐inclusive pronoun use for learners. Thi…
“A student is working on their own project”
Gender-neutral language serves as a powerful tool for promoting gender equality and inclusivity in today’s gender-diverse world. Among such linguistic devices, singular they , proposed as an alternative to generic he and the paired form he or she , has recently garnered notable attention as an epicene pronoun, used to refer to a generic individual whose gender is unknown or unspecified. In this systematic review, we synthesized existing empirical…
Both Quantity and Quality Matter
This study examined variations in the presence and effectiveness of argumentative elements in students’ persuasive essays. Argumentative essays are used from the PERSUADE 2.0 corpus ( n = 13,121) written by US students from grades 8 to 12. We first constructed a basic model representing the prototypical structure of independent argumentative essays, including fundamental elements (e.g., claims), secondary elements (e.g., counterclaims), and organ…

Changing Gendered Language in English Academic Writing? Epicene Pronoun Usage in Learners’ Research Manuscripts and Gender-Inclusive Practices in Journal Guidelines
The use of gender-inclusive language is crucial for promoting gender equality and inclusivity in scholarly communication. This study examined second language learners’ use of epicene pronouns in social sciences and humanities research manuscripts and surveyed recommended practices in journal guidelines for epicene pronoun usage. The findings revealed that learners predominantly adopted generic he and he or she forms, particularly he/she and he or…
Understanding “the” in L2 writing
Constituent and gestalt priming effects
This study investigated the priming effects of constituents (body; CV in CVC syllables) and gestalt units (syllable; CVC in CVC syllables) as well as syllabic format effects (left-right-down semi-horizontal format vs. top-down-down vertical format) on the visual processing of Korean disyllabic CVC words (n = 320). Korean native adults (n = 119; mean age = 23.13) participated in a priming lexical decision test. The results of linear mixed-effects …
Analyzing the Korean Alphabet
Analyses the Korean alphabet, Hangul, presenting implications for the science of reading and writing systems, and the ways it contributes to learnability
Lexical and grammatical collocations in beginning and intermediate L2 argumentative essays
Collocations play an important role in L2 learners’ fluent and idiomatic language production. Previous studies using a frequency-based approach to studying collocations underscored the potential to use association measures for distinguishing L2 writing proficiency. However, studies in this line have largely neglected the syntactic relation of words within a collocation. In addition, most L2 collocation studies have focused on learners at upper-in…
Phrase-frames in business emails
A phrase-frame (p-frame) is a multi-word sequence with a one-word variable within the sequence (e.g., it is * to ). P-frames are important components of language production and can demonstrate phraseological patterning. This study examined p-frames retrieved from one learner business emails corpus (1,413 texts based on the Education First-Cambridge Open Language Database) and one working professional email corpus (1,145 texts from the Enron email…

Linguistic relativity today: Language, mind, society, and the foundations of Linguistic Anthropology Marcel Danesi (2021) New York: Routledge. Pp. 172. ISBN 9780367431730 (hbk) ISBN 9780367431723 (pbk) ISBN 9781003001669 (eBook)
Toward a script relativity hypothesis
The purpose of this paper is to extend the linguistic relativity hypothesis (i.e., the language we speak affects the way we think) to ascript relativity hypothesis(i.e., the script in which we read influences our thought). Based on the rich body of knowledge in the science of reading that shows the effects of literacy on our cognitive processes, the foundation, rationale, and converging evidence of script relativity are discussed. The tenable not…
The effects of script specificity on word recognition
The recognition of coordinative compound words by learners of Chinese as a foreign language
Learners of Chinese as a foreign language (CFL) tend to swap the two characters within a coordinative compound word in verbal identification and written production. This mixed methods study not only investigated how CFL learners identified intercharacter orthographic and semantic relationships within two‐morpheme coordinative compound words, but also explored how they used decoding strategies to resolve confusion related to constituent characters…
Linguocultural cognition manifested in spoken narratives in L2 English by native Chinese and Korean speakers
From Linguistic Relativity to Script Relativity
This chapter reviews the evolution of the linguistic relativity hypothesis and how it was dismissed. The opponents of linguistic relativity misinterpreted the hypothesis itself and research results. With new interpretations and more scientific research findings, the hypothesis has gained rekindled interest in recent years. Empirical evidence for linguistic relativity is reviewed from the perspectives of first language influences on cognition, inc…
Inter-character Orthographic Similarity Effects on the Recognition of Chinese Coordinative Compound Words
Script Effects as the Hidden Drive of the Mind, Cognition, and Culture
While language defines humanity, literacy defines civilization.Understandably, illiteracy or difficulties in acquiring literacy skills have become a major concern of our technological society.A conservative estimate of the prevalence of literacy problems would put the figure at more than a billion people in the world.Because of the seriousness of the problem, research in literacy acquisition and its breakdown is pursued with enormous vigor and pe…
More than an alphabet
The Korean Hangul writing system conforms to the alphabetic principle to the extent that its graphs (i.e., its minimal orthographic components) represent phonemes, but it differs from the standard convention of alphabetic orthography by configuring its syllables as blocks. This paper describes the orthographic, phonological, and morphological characteristics of the Korean language and Hangul and reviews a selection of psycholinguistic studies tha…
