Italian Basic Terms Blu and Azzurro: Semantic Power Assessed in the Stroop Task
Color Research &Application, Volume 51, Issue 3, May/June 2026.A Stroop task revealed an asymmetry of the semantic power of the two basic “Italian blues,” blu “dark blue” and azzurro “light blue.” BLU word, rendered in dark and light blue inks, showed no significant Stroop effects. In contrast, AZZURRO word exhibited strong Stroop interference and facilitation. Higher semantic power of azzurro is argued to reflect

The notion that it is difficult to make predictions about derivational morphology has been a recurring theme in morphological research over the last decades. It can be unclear whether a derivative exists at all, what a derivative means exactly, and which

Relationships Between Morphological Knowledge, Spelling and Writing in Adolescents
Journal of Research in Reading, Volume 49, Issue 2, May 2026.ABSTRACT Background Spelling proficiency is crucial for expressing abstract ideas in writing. In secondary school, students are increasingly required to spell morphologically complex, subject‐specific words, but such words are challenging to spell, and few studies have investigated how morphological knowledge contributes to spelling and writing ...

Roots, Heads, or Both? Categorizing Turkish Derivational Affixes
Dilbilim Araştırmaları DergisiThe categorization of derivational affixes has received well-deserved attention in Distributed Morphology. In addition to single-categorization views that classify derivational affixes as either roots or heads,a recent proposal argues that such units can

The analysis of argument marking through verbal affixes in Lakota transitive constructions raises two main questions: the existence or non‐existence of the zero marker for the third person singular and
