The present study examines the production and interpretation of inalienable possession in dative constructions with body-part nouns in Spanish by 25 English-speaking L2 learners and 25 heritage speakers of Spanish born and raised in the United States. Twenty Spanish-dominant speakers served as baseline group. The results showed significant divergencies with inalienable NP s among the L2 learners compared to the heritage speakers and Spanish-domin…
Protracted development in child heritage Spanish
The present study examined the production of inalienable possession with body parts in Spanish among 20 school-age children of Mexican-born parents born and raised in the United States.

Group and individual results obtained via a question-and-answer ta…

The results of both tasks showed less infinitive use by the HSs and overexten…
