摘要
This study examined the influence of semantic and phonological priming on L2 speech planning,as well as the difference between native and non-native speakers of English in terms of lemma activation.Two potential explanations for the contrast between the performance of L2 speakers and native controls were considered.The first of which was that L2 speakers’ phonological forms are activated before selection of syntactic frame occurred,whereas the reverse is true for native speakers.The second explanation posits that the organisation of the speech production procedure is fundamentally similar in native and L2 speakers,and the disparity in performance arises from difference in the levels of activation of stored items.The results of the present experiment suggest that lemma selection is indeed what drives syntactic frame selection.However,lemmas in L2 speakers can be primed through a chain of connections demonstrated as:L2 phonological form →L1 phonological form → L1 lemma.
本研究探讨了语义和语音的激发效应对二语生成的影响,以及英语为母语者和英语为二语者在英语词目激活上的差异。本文对英语为母语者和英语为二语者在英语生成上的差异提出了两种可能的解释。第一种解释是英语为二语者对于英语的语音信息在选择句法框架前就被激活,英语为母语者则相反。第二种解释是英语为母语者和英语为二语者的英语生成过程基本相同,而具体差异源于语言生成过程中已有语言信息的不同激活阶段。实验结果表明词目的选择实际上是选择句法架构的驱动因素,然而,英语为二语者的词目激活要通过一个关系链:二语语音形式→母语语音形式→母语词目。
