OF THE DISSERTATION Context, Word-class, and Prosody in the Recognition of Openand Closed-class Words
متن کاملDifferences in brain potentials to open and closed class words: class and frequency effects.
Closed class (determiners, pronouns, conjunctions, prepositions etc. ) and open class (nouns, verbs, adjectives, adverbs) words have different linguistic functions and have been proposed to be processed by different neural systems. Here, event-related potentials (ERPs) were recorded in young German-speaking subjects while they read closed class and open class words flashed upon a video-screen. ...
متن کاملLexical access and frequency sensitivity: frequency saturation and open/closed class equivalence.
Whether closed-class words use the same lexical access route(s) as open-class words has been intensely debated recently. Differences in frequency sensitivity have been suggested as one manifestation of separable access routes. However, all the lexical decision studies have been limited by floor effects at the higher frequency ranges which could mask theoretically important differences in the be...
متن کاملSupporting Language Learners with the Meanings Of Closed Class Items
The process of language learning involves the mastery of countless tasks: making the constituent sounds of the language being learned, learning the grammatical patterns, and acquiring the requisite vocabulary for reception and production. While a plethora of computational tools exist to facilitate the first and second of these tasks, a number of challenges arise with respect to enabling the thi...
