Syntax is not unique to human language–the Japanese great tits “speak” in phrases too
Syntax human language Japanese great speak phrases
2016/3/21
Language is one of humans’ most important defining characteristics. It allows us to generate innumerable expressions from a finite number of vocal elements and meanings, and underlies the evolution of...
Since Ross 1967, island constraints have been a major topic in syntactic research; however, the
status of different types of islands and their psychological reality to this day remain subjects of hot...
“as an attempt to account for patterns of non-convergence and residual optionality found
at very advanced stages of adult second (L2) acquisition. The IH originally proposed that
language structures...
that is not how you agree:a reply to zeijlstra
syntax, agreement phi-features long-distance agreement
2015/9/6
In a recent paper, Zeijlstra (2012) argues that the theory of agreement should be revised
so that the direction of valuation would always be downward: the element that contributes
the value (e.g. in...
THE N400 IS NOT A SEMANTIC ANOMALY RESPONSE: MORE EVIDENCE FROM ADJECTIVE-NOUN COMBINATION
ANOMALY RESPONSE ADJECTIVE-NOUN COMBINATION
2015/9/2
Previous work has shown that the N400 ERP component is elicited by all words, whether
presented in isolation or in structured contexts, and that its amplitude is modulated by
semantic association ...
Native ‘um’s elicit prediction of low-frequency referents, but non-native ‘um’s do not
Prediction Disfluency bias Disfluency Hesitation Non-native speech Speech comprehension

Speech comprehension involves extensive use of prediction. Linguistic prediction may be guided by the semantics or syntax, but also by the performance characteristics of the speech signal, such as dis...
French–Dutch bilinguals do not maintain obligatory semantic distinctions: Evidence from placement verbs
functional bilinguals placement verbs French Dutch convergence
2015/5/5
It is often said that bilinguals are not the sum of two monolinguals but that bilingual systems represent a third pattern. This study explores the exact nature of this pattern. We ask whether there is...
Spatial congruity effects reveal metaphors, not markedness
metaphor polarity correspondence markedness musical pitch space
2015/4/27
Spatial congruity effects have often been interpreted as evidence for metaphorical thinking, but an alternative markedness-based account challenges this view. In two experiments, we directly compared ...

2015/4/20
Prosody, particularly accent, aids comprehension by drawing attention to important elements such as the information that answers a question. A study using ERP registration investigated how the brain d...

When two newly-acquired words are one: New words differing in stress alone are not automatically represented differently
lexical stress spoken word recognition Italian
2015/4/10
Do listeners use lexical stress at an early stage in word
learning? Artificial-lexicon studies have shown that listeners
can learn new spoken words easily. These studies used nonwords differing in...

Broca’s region battles are not won ignoring half of the facts
2015/4/7
We welcome opinions about the role of Broca’s area in higher-order cognition. Nevertheless, it was with somewhat of a surprise that we read the recent contribution by Grodzinsky and Santi on this topi...

Not all sounds assimilation environments perceived equally Evidence Korean
2015/4/3
This study tests whether potential differences in the perceptual robustness of speech sounds influence continuous-speech processes. Two phoneme-monitoring experiments examined place assimilation in Ko...
Speakers differentiate English intrusive and onset /r/, but L2 listeners do not
Annelie Tuinman Holger Mitterer and Anne Cutler
2015/4/1
We investigated whether non-native listeners can exploit phonetic detail in recognizing potentially ambiguous utterances, as native listeners can [6, 7, 8, 9, 10]. Due to the phenomenon of intrusive /...
