We present the development strategies and results of the CroMo morphological analyzer for Croatian. It was designed as a monolithic finite state based morphological segmentation and annotation tool, that emits feature bundles for all recognized morphemes and sub-morphemes, and generates lemmata for the lexical root and complex compounds in one swoop. Its linguistic base uses morphological and m...

Monolingual corpora were first thought of as an excellent basis for lexicographical research but, as time went on, research projects extended to various kinds of analysis, from the lexicon, to syntactic patterns to various aspects of text structure. Nowadays the study of the general lexicon covers the analysis of single and multi-word units in context, collocations, lexical groups, lexical 'bun...

This study is an attempt to understand the phonetic properties of pitch accent conditions in Japanese as related to the two observed versions of H tones. We tested the hypothesis that the higher version (accented H) results from pre-low raising (PLR) rather than being inherently higher. Correlation analysis reveals an inverse relation between accent peak and the following low tone, and that the...

Despite the surge in lexical bundle instruction EFL studies, very little research has looked at how explicit affects prospective Turkish teachers’ academic writing abilities on a quantitative level. As result, purpose of this study is to determine whether teaching bundles an impact developing skills terms accuracy and appropriacy. Thirty aspiring teachers who were enrolled Tokat Gaziosmanpaşa U...

It is widely assumed that prediction plays a substantial role in language processing. However, despite numerous studies demonstrating that contextual information facilitates both syntactic and lexical-semantic processing, there exists no direct evidence pertaining to the neural correlates of the prediction process itself. Using magnetoencephalography (MEG), this study found that brain activity ...

This study compares lexical retrieval amongst monolinguals and intermediate bilinguals and advanced bilinguals. It also investigates the possible effects of their language learning strategies on their respective lexical retrieval advantage. The study used a mixed methods design and the groups consisted of 20 Persian near-monolinguals, 20 Persian-English intermediate level bilinguals, and 20 Per...
