Adult phonological processing may be affected by previous linguistic knowledge. Here, we
examine how phonological perception and production in a third-language (L3) are affected …

In recent decades, a vast literature has documented crosslinguistic influences on the
acquisition of L2 phonology and in particular the effects of spelling on pronunciation …

Aims and objectives: This study aims to explore the segmental and suprasegmental acoustic
adjustments in the clear speech of Korean vowels produced by English-dominant Korean …

Acquiring L2 segments is particularly challenging for L2 learners, especially when the L1
and L2 inventories involve different contrasts and acoustic cues. The present research …

Learners of additional languages, particularly in adulthood and instructed settings, are
typically exposed to large quantities of written input from the earliest stages of learning, with …

Due to the articulatory proximity, Italian/ʎ/and/j/are confused by some speakers. The
neutralisation of the/ʎ/-/j/contrast lets prevail [j]-like sounds;/lj/and/llj/are sometime realised …

Previous research shows that acquiring L2 segments is one of the most challenging tasks L2
learners face, particularly when the L1 and L2 inventories involve different contrasts and …

Research investigating the relationship between orthography and second language (L2)
phonology has grown considerably over the past 20 years, in both size and complexity …

It has been demonstrated that a speaker aligns their speech production with a model talker
when shadowing model speech stimuli. The current study explores the Japanese English …
