Facilitatory Effects of Vowel Epenthesis on Word Processing in Dutch
We report a series of experiments examining the effects on word processing of insertion of an optional epenthetic vowel in word-final consonant clusters in Dutch. Such epenthesis turns film, for instance, into filəm. In a word-reversal task listeners treated words with and without epenthesis alike, as monosyllables, suggesting that the variant forms both activate the same canonical representati...
متن کاملFacilitatory Effects of Multi-Word Units in Lexical Processing and Word Learning: A Computational Investigation
Previous studies have suggested that children and adults form cognitive representations of co-occurring word sequences. We propose (1) that the formation of such multi-word unit (MWU) representations precedes and facilitates the formation of single-word representations in children and thus benefits word learning, and (2) that MWU representations facilitate adult word recognition and thus benefi...
متن کاملVowel epenthesis in Japanese speakers' L2 English
This study investigated how vowel epenthesis, a typical suprasegmental error produced by Japanese learners of English, is realized in their speech production of L2 English. We investigated two aspects: (i) whether loanword epenthesis phonology in Japanese transfers to English speech production, and (ii) how learners’ English proficiency level affects vowel epenthesis. In Japanese loanword phono...
متن کاملIndividual Differences in Vowel Epenthesis among Korean Learners of English
The aim of this study was to investigate individual differences in vowel epenthesis among Korean L2 speakers of English, and its relationship to other measures of segmental and suprasegmental processing. Thirty-two subjects completed a battery of production and perception tasks: spoken target words that were likely to have epenthetic vowels, read sentences, epenthetic vowel perception, identifi...
