Head Gestures Do Not Serve as Precursors of Prosodic Focus Marking in the Second Language as They Do in the First Language

Language Learning, EarlyView.
Abstract Research shows that children use head gestures to mark discourse focus before developing the required prosodic cues in their first language (L1), and their gestures affect the prosodic parameters of their speech. We investigated whether head gestures also act as precursors and bootstrappers of prosodic focus marking in second language (L2 ...

How Do They Feel? Processing Others’ Emotions in Second Language Discourse

Language Learning, EarlyView.
Abstract Emotion that is implied rather than literally expressed requires the processing of literal and pragmatic information. Processing multiple information types is an easy, fast process in the first language (L1) but can be costlier in a second language (L2), especially when emotional content is involved.

Hedgehog Pillows and Squirrel Plates: Priming Semantic Structure in Children's Comprehension

Language Learning, EarlyView.
Abstract We report three expression–picture‐matching experiments targeting preschoolers’ semantic processing. We assessed whether 3‐ and 4‐year‐olds’ interpretations of ambiguous novel noun–noun combinations (e.g., hedgehog pillow) were affected by immediate language experience and what role lexical items played in this process.

Care‐full negotiation of hospital discharge and end‐of‐life care in an Indonesian palliative care unit

Medical Anthropology Quarterly, EarlyView.
Abstract How do palliative care professionals negotiate end‐of‐life care with family members when prognosis and dying are not openly discussed?

Language comprehension and the rhythm of perception

Mind &Language, EarlyView.
It is widely agreed that language understanding has a distinctive phenomenology, as illustrated by phenomenal contrast cases.

I advance a rhythmic account, which explains this phenomenology in terms of changes in the rhythm of sensory capacities in both ...
