British Journal of Special Education, EarlyView.
Abstract Dyslexia is a common specific learning difficulty that can affect academic performance and students' educational experiences. Despite its prevalence in primary education, delays in identification are still reported, sometimes associated with educators' misconceptions and limited knowledge about the condition.

White Matter Networks of Phonological Awareness in Chinese Readers

Brain and Behavior
Introduction In our previous study, we have identified white matter subnetworks linked to phonological processing deficits (e.g., subnetworks centered at the left middle temporal gyrus) in dyslexic children from alphabetic languages using a data‐driven ...

PLoS ONE, 2016
In this article, we tested, using a 1-year longitudinal design, whether symbolic numerical magnitude processing or children's numerical representation of Arabic digits, is as important to arithmetic as phonological awareness is to reading.

Introduction: Towards a linguistic anthropology of AI Introduction : vers une anthropologie linguistique de l'IA

Journal of the Royal Anthropological Institute, EarlyView.
This essay introduces the themed cluster of articles, ‘Towards a linguistic anthropology of AI’. The advent of artificial intelligence (AI), especially in large language models capable of producing coherent discourse mimicking conversational interaction, is exerting unprecedented pressure on prevailing concepts of language, personhood, and the human ...

Neural processing of Mandarin and Cantonese lexical tone alternations: implications for the nature of phonological representations

Laboratory Phonology
This study provides neurocognitive evidence to shed further insight into the architecture of phonological representations. We tap into these representations by focusing on the neural processing of phonological alternations.

From talking tools to metahumans: social interaction, semiotic skill, and the authority of AI chatbots Des outils parlants aux métahumains : interactions sociales, compétences sémiotiques et autorité des robots conversationnels

Journal of the Royal Anthropological Institute, EarlyView.
What does it take to turn a tool into a talking tool and that into an ultimate authority? Generative artificial intelligence (GenAI) in its diverse forms, such as large language models (LLMs), is celebrated as a useful tool. But LLM‐based conversational agents, or chatbots, the software applications through which ordinary users are likely to engage ...

Loanwords and Linguistic Phylogenetics: *pelek̑u‐ ‘axe’ and *(H)a(i̯)g̑‐ ‘goat’1

Transactions of the Philological Society, Volume 123, Issue 1, Page 116-136, March 2025.
Abstract This paper assesses the role of borrowings in two different approaches to linguistic phylogenetics: Traditional qualitative analyses of lexemes, and quantitative computational analysis of cognacy. It problematises the assumption that loanwords can be excluded altogether from datasets of lexical cognacy.
