Course Title

Bilingual Effects in Speech Perception and Production

Description

The first language we learn exerts a strong influence on our phonetic perception and production. How does acquisition of two languages influence these processes? If the phonetic categories differ, are both represented? Are they equal, or does one language have to dominate? This course will explore the multiple effects that living with more than one language has on the mental organization of speech sounds and how factors, such as age of acquisition and types of experience, affect perception and production of first and second language speech sounds.
