Hedging the truth
Researchers from various disciplines—linguistics, law, and philosophy—have long recognized an important distinction between lying and merely misleading, arguing that false explicit content constitutes lying, whereas false implicit content is merely misleading. Recent experimental work has challenged this distinction, showing that a statement conveying false implicit content may be judged as a lie, even if it is explicitly true. This study offers …
We Do Not Speak Like This Here
People use many kinds of cues that help them navigate social interactions. We examined how perceived foreignness affected people's ability to map speaker‐specific naming preferences, align with their interlocutors concerning these preferences, and make social inferences based on them. In a pseudo‐interactive experiment, participants engaged with two simulated speakers: one with a common native name who consistently used favored words, and one who…

Learning speaker-specific linguistic ‘style’ is mediated by deviance from common language use
Different speakers sometimes convey similar meanings differently. This study examined whether listeners could learn to associate a specific linguistic ‘style’ with a certain speaker, with no apparent difference in meaning, and the role of unnatural linguistic choices (or unexpectedness) in such learning. We created an inter-speaker variation in ‘style’ using the weak adjective ordering preferences in Hebrew. Participants were exposed to two diffe…
Scales and inferences
Scalar inferences (SIs) are upper-bounding inferences associated with the use of semantically lower-bounded scalar expressions. One of the current debates regarding these inferences concerns their inferential pattern, specifically whether SIs are uniform or diverse across scales. This study follows the work on scalar diversity yet introduces two changes: First, we reexamine, from a different perspective, two structural properties of scales identi…
Alternative-based commitment
The scalar interpretation of double negation
Morphosyntactic Cues for Quantifier Comprehension in Children
Universal quantifiers, which refer to groups of individuals or events, can express a subtle distinction between collective (unified or simultaneous) and distributive (individuated and separate) events. Indeed, English uses different quantifiers for this distinction (“all” and “each”, respectively). Hebrew, however, has a single universal quantifier. Thus, the collective/distributive distinction associated with the universal quantifier is represen…
Linguistic inability or poor performance
Behavioral investigations of the acquisition of some have shown that children favor its logical interpretation (some and possibly all). Adults, however, use the pragmatic interpretation (some but not all) derived by a scalar implicature. Certain experimental manipulations increase children's rates of adult-like responses, indicating that children are capable of computing implicatures. A functional MRI (fMRI) study examining adults linked the left…
