Description
Lexical competition is central to both spoken and visual word recognition, but it is far more explicit, dynamic and empirically foregrounded in the spoken domain. Here, I apply this theory to bilingualism and show how cross-language lexical activation and competition shapes the linguistic/cognitive architecture of bilingualism. I will discuss empirical data in both modalities to demonstrate the cross-language lexical dynamics and how this framework could be developed to account for bilingual language development.| Period | 5 Mar 2026 |
