Talks will take place in Lorch 471 and virtually (umich.zoom.us/j/6624396919)
Students will be presenting in small groups on their original research proposals. Topics include the following:
(1) A corpus study on the role of the sonority hierarchy in consonant cluster mispronunciations in English and Thai-speaking children;
(2) A combined corpus / experimental study on the effects of screen time exposure in Mainstream American English (MAE) on African-American English (AAE)-speaking toddlers' phonology;
(3) A longitudinal experimental study on vocabulary regression in school-age heritage speakers of Spanish attending English-language schools;
(4) An experimental study on the extent to which bilinguals of morphophonologically similar (Spanish-Portuguese) and dissimilar (Spanish-German) languages depend on the lexical constraint of mutual exclusivity across the developmental trajectory;
(5) A corpus study on the acquisition of grammatical gender among bilingual speakers of languages with differing gender systems (French, Russian);
(6) An experimental study on the acquisition of syntactic and lexical reflexivity in bilingual (Spanish-English) and monolingual children.
