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 …
The Language of Subtitles for Arabic-English Bilingual Speakers in the United Arab Emirates
This paper investigates the use of subtitles by Arabic-English bilingual speakers in the UAE. While extant research on the effects of subtitles on language acquisition focuses on either first language acquisition by children or second or foreign acquisition by monolingual speakers, this study examines bilingual speakers and their preference for the language of subtitles in different contexts via an online questionnaire. Results from 28 Arabic-Eng…
Problematic Autoethnographic Research: Researcher’s Failure in Positioning
This article problematizes and discusses the “auto”ethnographical approach, which has recently become pervasive in research-oriented writings, to “tell the story of self and subject” in order to analyze wider cultural and social conditions. This method can be found in the remarkable array of a variety of disciplines in which scholars have explicitly and implicitly highlighted identity-related issues. One problem with this approach is its failure …
A New Outlook of Complementizers
This paper investigates clausal complements of factive and non-factive predicates in English, with particular focus on the distribution of overt and null that complementizers. Most studies on this topic assume that both overt and null that clauses have the same underlying structure and predict that these clauses show (nearly) the same syntactic distribution, contrary to fact: while the complementizer that is freely dropped in non-factive clausal …

To introduce this Special Issue entitled Clausal and Nominal Complements in Monolingual and Bilingual Grammars, we begin by explaining what originally motivated this Special Issue
Mixed Verbs in Code-Switching: The Syntax of Light Verbs
This study investigates word order variation in Korean-English and Japanese-English code-switching, with specific focus on the relative placement of the object and the verb in two contrasting word orders, Object-Verb (OV) vs. Verb-Object (VO). The results of an experiment eliciting code-switching judgment data provides strong evidence indicating that the distinction between heavy vs. light verbs plays a major role in deriving different word order…
Museums taking steps forward: Pedagogical apparatus requiring strategic preparation for controversial art
Since the twentieth century, museums have faced stages of reinvention as pedagogical venues. Because beliefs among groups in terms of race, sexuality, and religiosity are contentious with political interests towards power for dominance, the complex museum world, representing various cultural ideologies, has become an important implication for public education. In this paper, I examine how museums handle different perspectives and controversial is…
