Loanword adaptation as first-language phonological perception [PDF]

, 2009
We show that loanword adaptation can be understood entirely in terms of phonological and phonetic comprehension and production mechanisms in the first language. We provide explicit accounts of several loanword adaptation phenomena (in Korean) in terms of

From phonetics to phonology : The emergence of first words in Italian [PDF]

, 2009
This study assesses the extent of phonetic continuity between babble and words in four Italian children followed longitudinally from 0; 9 or 0; 10 to 2;0-two with relatively rapid and two with slower lexical growth. Prelinguistic phonetic characteristics,

Testing the Event Visibility Hypothesis in Austrian Sign Language (ÖGS)

Language and Cognition
In sign languages, aspects of event structure have been shown to be systematically reflected in the phonological structure of verb signs, as proposed by the Event Visibility Hypothesis (EVH).

Mechanisms of sub-phonemic change in prescriptive bilingualism: The case of Mexican Plautdietsch

Glossa, 2022

Early predictors of phonological and morphological awareness and the link with reading : evidence from children with different patterns of early deficit [PDF]

, 2015
This study examines the contribution of early phonological processing (PP) and language skills on later phonological awareness (PA) and morphological awareness (MA), as well as the links among PA, MA, and reading.

Schooling Trajectories and the Development of Brain Dynamics: A Comparative Study of Montessori and Traditional Education

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
We investigate whether Montessori and traditional schooling systems shape the developmental trajectory of large‐scale brain dynamics in different ways. We quantify the arrow of time (“non‐reversibility”) in neural activity during resting state and movie‐watching, revealing distinct maturational patterns.

Foreign Language Learning in Older Adults Modifies Resting‐State Functional Connectivity Between the Subcortical Structures and the Cortex

AGING MEDICINE, EarlyView.
Foreign language learning in older adults reorganizes thalamic and caudate connectivity, in a process topographically overlapping with the expression of receptors and genes related to neuroplasticity. ABSTRACT Objectives Neuroimaging studies suggest that Foreign Language Learning (FLL) influences resting‐state functional connectivity (rs‐FC) within the

Amodal aspects of linguistic design. [PDF]

PLoS ONE, 2013
All spoken languages encode syllables and constrain their internal structure. But whether these restrictions concern the design of the language system, broadly, or speech, specifically, remains unknown.

Language and Repetition Performance in Autism Spectrum Disorder Versus Developmental Language Disorder: Evidence From Turkish‐Speaking Children

Autism Research, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Autism spectrum disorder (ASD) is a neurodevelopmental condition characterized by persistent differences in social communication and interaction, as well as restricted and repetitive patterns of behavior, interests, or activities. Language difficulties are common in autism and can affect multiple domains, including phonology, morphology ...
