文摘
- •
We examine use of language-specific verbal semantics for predictive processing.
- •
Dutch L1 and German L2 users predict object position based on Dutch placement verbs.
- •
French/English L2 users do not anticipate object position on the basis of these cues.
- •
Results show effects of language experience on predictive sentence comprehension.
- •
L2 research allows cross-linguistic comparisons using identical linguistic stimuli.
