Allophonic and phonemic tap dance: the influence of native phonology on nonnative phonetic perception and lexical encoding Open
This study investigates second language (L2) phonetic categorization and phonological encoding of L2 words (hereafter, phonolexical encoding 1 ) with phonemic and allophonic cross-linguistic mismatches. We focus on the acquisition of Spani…
The Influence of Native Phonology, Allophony, and Phonotactics on Nonnative Lexical Encoding: A Vocabulary Training Study Open
Second language (L2) speakers often experience difficulties in learning words with L2‐specific phonemes due to the unfaithful lexical encoding predicted by the fuzzy lexical representations hypothesis. Currently, there is limited understan…

Fuzzy Lexical Representations in Adult Second Language Speakers Open
We propose the fuzzy lexical representations (FLRs) hypothesis that regards fuzziness as a core property of nonnative (L2) lexical representations (LRs). Fuzziness refers to imprecise encoding at different levels of LRs and interacts with …
Ontogenesis Model of the L2 Lexical Representation Open
We introduce the blueprint of the Ontogenesis Model of the L2 Lexical Representation (OM) that focuses on the development of lexical representations. The OM has three dimensions: linguistic domains (phonological, orthographic, and semantic…

Fuzzy Nonnative Phonolexical Representations Lead to Fuzzy Form-to-Meaning Mappings Open
The present paper explores nonnative (L2) phonological encoding of lexical entries and dissociates the difficulties associated with L2 phonological and phonolexical encoding by focusing on similarly sounding L2 words that are not different…
Abstraction of phonological representations in adult nonnative speakers Open
Perception of nonnative contrasts by adult second language (L2) learners is affected by native language phonology. The current study contrasted predictions from two models of L2 phonological acquisition that focus on different representati…
