Topicality and asymmetry between pronoun production and interpretation
Despite much research on pronoun production and interpretation, whether the two processes are affected by the same preferences is controversial. The debate has primarily been limited to the question of whether pronoun production, like comprehension, is influenced by the likelihood of the speaker re-mentioning the referent, and the findings on this point are mixed. This study takes a new approach to the debate by reanalysing how topicality influen…
Musical Aptitude and Phonemic Processing of English as L2 by Arabic Speakers
It is suggested that there is a connection between musical aptitude and the ability to process phonemes in a second language (L2) through acoustic processing. Previous research indicates that musical ability might aid in the processing of L2 vowel sounds, while findings regarding musical ability and L2 consonant processing are inconsistent. While some argue that musical aptitude can facilitate the processing of consonant phonemes, others contend …
Topicality and attention in pronoun interpretation
L2 Learners’ Adaptation to an L2 Structure That Is Different From L1
The present study investigates how L2 learners adapt their production preferences following immediate and cumulative experience with a syntactic structure when an L2 structure differs from an L1 structure in terms of verb subcategorization frame and argument structure. Korean learners of English described causative events in English in a picture-matching game. The meaning of a causative sentence in English (e.g., Jen had her computer fixed ) is e…
Avoidance of gender-ambiguous pronouns as a consequence of ambiguity-avoidance strategy
It is well known that English speakers produce fewer pronouns when discourse contexts include more than one entity that matches the gender of the pronoun, i.e., gender effect. It is controversial, however, what causes the gender effect. Some suggest that it results from speakers’ avoidance of linguistic ambiguity, while others suggest that it results from the influence of non-linguistic conceptual similarity between discourse entities. To adjudic…
Semantic Properties of Pronouns Modulate Pronoun Use
Pronouns vary across languages in terms of their specification of semantic features. For example, the third singular pronoun in Cantonese (keoi), unlike in English, does not make distinctions of gender and animacy. The present study aims to provide insight into how semantic properties of pronouns modulate speakers' choice of referring expression by investigating pronoun use in a language with different feature specifications from English, namely …
Late Bilinguals Share Syntax Unsparingly Between L1 and L2
Languages often use different constructions to convey the same meaning. For example, the meaning of a causative construction in English (Jen had her computer fixed) is conveyed using an active structure in Korean (Jen-NOM her computer-ACC fixed), and yet little is known about how bilinguals represent and process such constructions. The present study investigated whether late bilinguals develop shared or language-specific representations for cross…
