Phonemic similarity effects and prelexical phonology.
Ten experiments were conducted on visually presented Serbo-Croatian words and pseudowords, comprising phonemically similar and dissimilar context-target sequences. There were five main results. First, phonemic similarity effects in both lexical decision and naming are independent of graphemic similarity. Second, phonemic similarity need not facilitate lexical decision; the direction of its effe...
متن کاملSimilarity in L2 Phonology
Title of dissertation: SIMILARITY IN L2 PHONOLOGY Shannon L. Barrios, Doctor of Philosophy, 2013 Dissertation directed by: Professor William J. Idsardi Department of Linguistics Adult second language (L2) learners often experience difficulty producing and perceiving non-native phonological contrasts. Even highly proficient bilinguals, who have been exposed to an L2 for long periods of time, str...
متن کاملPhonemic repertoire and similarity within the vocabulary
Language-specific differences in the size and distribution of the phonemic repertoire can have implications for the task facing listeners in recognising spoken words. A language with more phonemes will allow shorter words and reduced embedding of short words within longer ones, decreasing the potential for spurious lexical competitors to be activated by speech signals. We demonstrate that this ...
متن کاملDo transposed-letter similarity effects occur at a prelexical phonological level?
Nonwords created by transposing two letters (e.g., RELOVUTION) are very effective at activating the lexical representation of their base words (Perea & Lupker, 2004). In the present study, we examined whether the nature of transposed-letter (TL) similarity effects was purely orthographic or whether it could also have a phonological component. Specifically, we examined transposed-letter similari...
متن کاملPhonemic Similarity Metrics to Compare Pronunciation Methods
As graphemetophoneme methods proliferate, their careful evaluation becomes increasingly important. This paper ex plores a variety of metrics to compare the automatic pronunci ation methods of three freelyavailable graphemetophoneme packages on a large dictionary. Two metrics, presented here for the first time, rely upon a novel weighted phonemic substi tution matrix ...
