The Monolingual Nature of Speech Segmentation by Bilinguals.

Cutler, Anne; And Others

Cognitive Psychology, v24 n3 p381-410 Jul 1992

Forty-one French-English bilinguals in England and France participated in three segmentation experiments with English and French materials. Bilinguals formed two groups, defined by forced choice of a dominant language. Only the French-dominant group showed syllabic segmentation and only with French language materials. The English-dominant group showed no syllabic segmentation. (RLC)
