Monolingual comparative normativity in bilingualism research is out of “ control ”
Herein, we contextualize, problematize, and offer some insights for moving beyond the problem of monolingual comparative normativity in (psycho) linguistic research on bilingualism. We argue that, in the vast majority of cases, juxtaposing (functional) monolinguals to bilinguals fails to offer what the comparison is supposedly intended to do: meet the standards of empirical control in line with the scientific method. Instead, the default nature o…
Structural similarity in third language acquisition
Language learners typically experience cross-linguistic influence (CLI) from one\nor several previously acquired languages when acquiring an additional language.\nLearners of a second language (L2) are influenced by their native languages in\nall language domains ranging from phonology, lexicon, and morphosyntax, to\nsemantics, discourse, and pragmatics. In third (and subsequent) language (L3/\nLn) acquisition, however, there is more than one pot…
Crosslinguistic influence in child L3 English
Aims and objectives: This empirical study investigates variables affecting crosslinguistic influence (CLI) in child third language (L3) acquisition. We examine whether structural or typological similarity leads to CLI from one or both of the previously acquired languages at later stages of acquisition. Design/methodology: We compare Russian-German heritage bilinguals acquiring L3 English to L2 English learners with either L1 German or L1 Russian …
Foreign Accent in Pre- and Primary School Heritage Bilinguals
Previous research has shown that the two languages of early bilingual children can influence each other, depending on the linguistic property, while adult bilinguals predominantly show influence from the majority language to the minority (heritage) language. While this observed shift in influence patterns is probably related to a shift in dominance between early childhood and adulthood, there is little data documenting it. Our study investigates …
Definite article use with generic reference in German
This study is concerned with the distribution of the definite article in German with plural nominals that have a generic reading . In Standard German, genericity is typically expressed by bare nouns ( Tiger sind gefährlich ‘Tigers are dangerous’). Many researchers have claimed that there is variation in article use in the expression of generic reference in German (e.g., Brugger 1993; Longobardi 1994; Krifka et al. 1995; Chierchia 1998; Dayal 2004…
