  • Attentional dynamics in lexical and language identification: Evidence from eye-tracking

  • Neuro-cognitive correlates of lexical borrowing during sentence comprehension of bi-dialectal speakers

    Open AccessJunru Wu, Mengru Han et al.ARTICLEBilingualism Language and Cognition2026

    This study explores lexical borrowing and loanword nativization from a neuro-cognitive perspective testing bi-dialectal speakers of Standard Chinese and Shanghainese Chinese. We created holistic and morpheme-based cross-dialectal loanwords for auditory sentence processing and compared them with Shanghainese-specific words, code-switches, and pre-existing etymologically related words. Participants rated their acceptance of each word, indicating Sh…

  • Recognizing two dialects in one written form: A Stroop study

    Open AccessJunru Wu, Vincent J Van Heuven et al.ARTICLEBilingualism Language and Cognition2024

    This study aims to examine the influence of dialectal experience on logographic visual word recognition. Two groups of Chinese monolectals and three groups of Chinese bi-dialectals performed Stroop color-naming in Standard Chinese (SC), and two of the bi-dialectal groups also in their regional dialects. The participant groups differed in dialectal experiences. The ink-character relation was manipulated in semantics, segments, and tones separately…

  • Systematic correspondence in co-evolving languages

    Open AccessJunru Wu, Junyuan ZhaoARTICLEHumanities and Social Sciences…2023

    Language co-evolution is an influential cultural force, impacting the past, present, and future of human languages. Systematic correspondence identifies corresponding features in languages evolving together, such as English "d" and German "t" in word pairs like “deed–Tat” and “deep–tief”. This study examines how social ecology influences lexical-phonological systematic correspondence using a vector-based measurement— weighted cosine systematicity…

  • Neurocognition in the reading of Chinese characters

    Open AccessJunru WuARTICLEJournal of Chinese Writing Systems2022

    Chinese characters, which form an ideographic writing system, have shown distinctive features in the neurocognition of their reading. This paper gives a comprehensive review of five main issues of Chinese reading, which are (1) the relationship across written forms, sounds, and meanings during the neurocognitive processing of Chinese reading, (2) the involvement of structural and linguistic units, such as strokes (笔画), radicles (部件), components (…
