                        A lexical semantic approach to the L2 acquisition of Spanish psych verbs
                  Friday, January 7, 2022
                
                                                                    
                                                This study builds on prior research on second language (L2) Spanish psych verbs, which has centered on morphosyntactic properties, by examining their syntactic distribution, which relies on lexical semantic knowledge. The fact that certain forms are licensed for some verbs, but not others, is the result of an underlying lexical semantic difference across verb classes, represented here as a difference in formal feature strength.

                        Does Race Impact Sentence Predictability? An Account of Accented Speech in Two Different Multilingual Locales
                  Saturday, January 1, 2022
                
                                                                    
                                                Upon hearing someone’s speech, a listener can access information such as the speaker’s age, gender identity, socioeconomic status, and their linguistic background. However, an open question is whether living in different locales modulates how listeners use these factors to assess speakers’ speech. Here, an audio-visual test was used to measure whether listeners’ accentedness judgments and intelligibility (i.e., speech perception) can be modulated depending on racial information in faces that they see.
