On positive evidence and ultimate attainment in L2 phonology
Second Language Research, 1994Since the early 1970s, L2 syntax researchers have seriously challenged the applicability of a critical period to the acquisition of L2 syntax, reformulating this challenge in the 1990s in terms of whether postpuberty learners retain access to the principles and parameters of Universal Grammar (UG). While it seems much more likely that a critical period

The Effect of Age on the Ultimate Attainment of English Lexis and Morphosyntax
International Journal of Linguistics, 2017This study investigates the relationship between the age of onset of learning English and the ultimate attainment in that language. To this end, it tests the lexical and morphosyntactic competence of 62 intermediate school students who have different points of onset. They have to do a grammaticality judgment test and a vocabulary test.

Journal of Applied Physics, 1979
Using a sensitive microprofilometer, the onset of yielding in the anvils of a supported opposed anvil device can readily be determined. If the pressure at which yielding occurs is measured, the yield stress of the anvil material can be obtained. This is illustrated for 3% cobalt cemented tungsten carbide. The reverse is also true and can be used as the

L2 and L3 ultimate attainment: an investigation of two parameters
International Journal of Multilingualism, 2013This study considers the upper limit of ultimate attainment in the L2 French and L3 English of trilingual learners. The learners are native speakers of Moroccan Arabic who started learning L2 French at eight and L3 English at 16. They are advanced in both languages.

Ultimate attainment of tense/aspectual contrasts in L2 Spanish
2007This paper considers the difficulty of L1 English speakers in learning the Spanish past tense/aspectual contrasts and addresses the question of their ultimate attainment of the same. The concepts of tense/aspect are defined as well as how they fit into the larger notion of temporality.

Sensitive periods, language aptitude, and ultimate L2 attainment
2013Research on second language acquisition (SLA) has identified language aptitude and age of onset (AO), i.e., the age at which learners are first meaningfully exposed to the L2, as robust predictors of rate of classroom language learning and level of ultimate L2 attainment in naturalistic settings, respectively.

Subspace attractivity and invariance: Ultimate attainment of prescribed dynamic behaviour
1990The outline of the chapter is as follows. We begin with a brief resume of relevant concepts and results from the theory of differential inclusions. The class of uncertain systems to be considered in then made precise. We continue with a treatment of the variable structure systems concept of an invariant subspace ℒ (with prescribed dynamic behaviour ...
