Immersion in second language does not always attenuate and attrite first language: Evidence from Nepali–English bilinguals
Aims and objectives: The aims and objectives of the present research were to investigate and cross-check if immersion in a bilingual situation over a certain period of time had any modulatory effect on bilingual processing in an immigrant population. Then, main aim of the experiment was to test the performance in L1 in comparison to their L2. Approach: Theoretically, we tested two dominant bilingual processing theories—Bilingual Language Interact…
Trilingual parallel processing: Do the dominant languages grab all the attention
Twenty-five L1 Nepali speaking participants living in Trondheim, Norway who spoke English as L2 and Norwegian as L3 (late adult learners) participated in this study. Participants’ L2 proficiency was established as advanced in LexTALE. We administered language comprehension and production tasks in a trilingual design. In a mouse tracking trilingual parallel activation experiment, participants performed a language comprehension task in which they l…

Spatial communication systems across languages reflect universal action constraints
The extent to which languages share properties reflecting the non-linguistic constraints of the speakers who speak them is key to the debate regarding the relationship between language and cognition. A critical case is spatial communication, where it has been argued that semantic universals should exist, if anywhere. Here, using an experimental paradigm able to separate variation within a language from variation between languages, we tested the u…
