Grapheme-color associations can transfer to novel graphemes when synesthetic colors function as grapheme “discriminating markers” [PDF]
Synesthesia is a condition in which the perception of a stimulus in one modality automatically triggers a secondary sensation in another modality or processing stream. Our study focused on grapheme-color synesthesia, in which the visual perception of letters or numbers (graphemes) induces a specific color sensation (the synesthetic color).

Feedforward, -backward and neutral transparency measures for British English [PDF]
Orthographic transparency metrics for opaque or deep languages such as French and English have tended to focus on feedforward and/or feedback directions, with claims made for the influence of both on reading.

Neural Grapheme-To-Phoneme Conversion with Pre-Trained Grapheme Models
Neural network models have achieved state-of-the-art performance on grapheme-to-phoneme (G2P) conversion. However, their performance relies on large-scale pronunciation dictionaries, which may not be available for a lot of languages. Inspired by the success of the pre-trained language model BERT, this paper proposes a pre-trained grapheme model called ...

Learning words in a new language: orthography doesn't always help [PDF]
Previous studies have shown that orthography is activated during speech processing and that it may have positive and negative effects for non-native listeners.

Semantic and Pragmatic Potential of Emojis in Context of a COVID-19 Pandemic
In this paper, an attempt is made to analyze the semantic and pragmatic potential of emoji signs that explicate the “covid” meaning. The Internet thesaurus emoji with a common semantic component “medicine / coronavirus pandemic ”, circulating in the ...

A longitudinal study of grapheme-color synesthesia in childhood:6/7 years to 10/11 years [PDF]
Grapheme-colour synaesthesia is a condition characterised by enduring and consistent associations between letter/digits and colours. This study is the continuation of longitudinal research begun by Simner, Harrold, Creed, Monro and Foulkes (2009) which ...

Graphemic analysis underlying literacy [PDF]
Three experiments are described that studied the role of detailed graphemic analysis upon the ability to read text. College students named letters in various approximations to English, with frequency of individual letters constant. Findings were that later skill at reading varied with the order of approximation to English of the letters that were named,

Cross-modal associations in synaesthesia: vowel colours in the ear of the beholder [PDF]
Human speech conveys many forms of information, but for some exceptional individuals (synaesthetes), listening to speech sounds can automatically induce visual percepts such as colours.

Grapheme-colour synaesthesia and the orthoptist
Aim: To give an overview of the condition known as grapheme-colour synaesthesia, and examine whether there is a need for orthoptists to be aware of its existence and potential impact when it coexists with other conditions, such as specific learning ...
