Language Learning, EarlyView.Abstract This study explores how word frequency affects verb‐mediated prediction in L1 and L2 speakers, using a visual‐world eye‐tracking task. By manipulating frequency of nouns within subjects (higher; lower) and type of verbs used as predictive cues (semantically restrictive; neutral) in sentences (e.g., The {doctor/surgeon} {opened/moved} the box),

Language Learning, EarlyView.Abstract Studies have explored the relationship between text readability and processing effort in second language (L2) reading—as evidenced by eye movements. However, these studies generally relied on short texts, raising concerns about the validity of the analyzed data. This study reexamined these relationships using open‐source eye‐tracking data from

Language Learning, EarlyView.Abstract Parallel tracking of distant relations between speech elements, so‐called nonadjacent dependencies (NADs), is crucial in language development but computationally demanding and acquired only in late preschool years. As processing of single NADs is facilitated when dependent elements are perceptually similar, we investigated how phonetic ...

A nuclear families word list for French
The Modern Language Journal, EarlyView.Abstract This between‐languages replication study relates the development and testing of a nuclear, families‐based, pedagogical word list for French as was previously done for English. A word family includes base and inflected words (or lemmas) plus derivations.

Exception Handling for Error Reporting in Parsing Expression Grammars [PDF]
, 2013 Parsing Expression Grammars (PEGs) are a new formalism to describe a top-down parser of a language. However, error handling techniques that are often applied to top-down parsers are not directly applicable to PEGs. This problem is usually solved in PEGs using a heuristic that helps to simulate the error reporting technique from top-down parsers, but ...

The Modern Language Journal, EarlyView.Abstract Multimodal materials (e.g., written text supplemented by images and/or audio) are commonplace in language classrooms. While they have been consistently shown to be beneficial for vocabulary acquisition, the efficacy of multimodal input in scaffolding text comprehension is less clear. Conflicting findings have also been reported in terms of the

Annals of the New York Academy of Sciences, EarlyView.In the InCHORRRuS (Infant‐directed (ID) Communication Highlights and Organizes Repetition and Redundancy through Rhythmic Structure) framework, increased rhythmicity in ID speech and the beat‐based metrically structured rhythmicity in ID song naturally organize the multimodally redundant and repetitive cues in the caregiver's communicative signals ...
