Dai, Huiqin; Wen, Xu; Wen, Rui – Asian-Pacific Journal of Second and Foreign Language Education, 2022
Native speakers of English have a strong preference for transferred negation as opposed to non-transferred negation. The present study aims to examine whether young Chinese-speaking ESL learners have a target-like preference for transferred negation and whether they have a system-wide representation of transferred negation in their early English…

Gonulal, Talip – Applied Language Learning, 2022
The beneficial role of collaborative dialogue in second language (L2) writing has been established, with considerable research investigating the role that collaborative writing tasks play in facilitating language learning by promoting language-related episodes (LREs). However, when compared to that of commonly taught languages, research…

Iso, Tatsuo; Aizawa, Kazumi; Katagiri, Kazuhiko; Orita, Mitsuru – Research-publishing.net, 2022
This study examines whether ten weeks of direct instruction of affixes with online systems can improve learners' knowledge of affixes by using Affix Master 10 (AM10), a collection of online self-study materials developed by the current researchers. The aim of AM10 is to let students comprehensively learn 30 prefixes and 31 suffixes. The two…

Hennenfent, Lauren; Johnson, Lindy J.; Novelli, Christina; Sharkey, Erin – Office of Special Education Programs, US Department of Education, 2022
The purpose of morphology instruction is to: (1) support accurate and fluent polysyllabic (poly = more than one) reading; (2) improve spelling of polysyllabic words; and (3) aid vocabulary development and reading comprehension. Thus, instruction needs to move from part (morphemes) to whole (polysyllabic words). This guide includes information…

Qiaoling He; Isabel Oltra-Massuet – Language Teaching Research, 2024
As one type of the most extensively used sentences, English questions are must-learn grammatical structures for learners of English as a foreign language (EFL). However, it is commonly seen that English learners across proficiency levels produce ungrammatical English questions. To determine the source of learners' erroneous production, we…

Wang, Shih-ping; Tseng, Wen-Ta; Johanson, Robert – SAGE Open, 2021
A growing trend exists for authors to employ a more informal writing style that uses "we" in academic writing to acknowledge one's stance and engagement. However, few studies have compared the ways in which the first-person pronoun "we" is used in the abstracts and conclusions of empirical papers. To address this lacuna in the…

Deshors, Sandra C. – Applied Linguistics, 2021
This multifactorial corpus-based exploration of past tenses focuses specifically on the present perfect (PP) versus simple past (SP) alternation in intermediate-to-advanced learner English produced by French and German native speakers. While existing work on past tenses in L2 has traditionally focused on the role of lexical aspect in the…

Grigorakis, Ioannis; Manolitsis, George – Reading and Writing: An Interdisciplinary Journal, 2021
The purpose of this 3-year longitudinal study was to examine the role of three morphological awareness (MA) aspects (inflectional, derivational, and lexical compounding) in the spelling of specific morphemes. Two hundred and fifteen Greek children were followed from kindergarten (K) to grade 2 (G2). In K and grade 1 (G1) they were tested on…

Wattad, Haneen; Abu Rabia, Salim – Reading Psychology, 2020
This article presents a review of studies that investigated the advantage of morphological awareness and knowledge of basic morphemes that comprise verbs in Arabic among normal and dyslexic native Arabic readers, and discusses the role of Arabic morphology in reading. The review included studies on Arabic as well as some studies on Hebrew, since…

Trussell, Jessica W. – American Annals of the Deaf, 2020
Students who are deaf and hard of hearing (DHH) are predominately educated in inclusive settings, sometimes with support from itinerant teachers of the DHH. Often, these teachers provide vocabulary instruction to support students with content-area coursework (e.g., social studies). Morphological word analysis is a recommended strategy for…

Lee, Eun-Kyoung Rosa – Studies in Second Language Acquisition, 2020
The present study examined whether early immersive L2 exposure in a foreign language learning context can yield long-term advantages in L2 morpho-syntactic sensitivity. Participants were 40 Korean university students with high English proficiency, who had either attended an English kindergarten or begun learning English in a classroom, and a…

Coch, Donna; Hua, Jianjun; Landers-Nelson, Allison – Journal of Research in Reading, 2020
Background: Evidence indicates that fluent readers automatically decompose morphologically complex words. However, few studies have directly compared processing of stimuli comprising different types of morphemes, particularly bound and free morphemes. Methods: Eighty fluently reading young adults participated in a lexical decision task with word…

Gordon, Moragh; Oudesluijs, Tino; Auer, Anita – International Journal of English Studies, 2020
This article contributes to existing studies that are concerned with standardisation and supralocalisation processes in the development of written English during the Early Modern English period. By focussing on and comparing civic records and letter data from important regional urban centres, notably Bristol, Coventry and York, from the period…

Galuschka, Katharina; Görgen, Ruth; Kalmar, Julia; Haberstroh, Stefan; Schmalz, Xenia; Schulte-Körne, Gerd – Educational Psychologist, 2020
This systematic review and meta-analysis investigated the efficacy of spelling interventions for the remediation of dyslexia and spelling deficits. Theoretically important moderators, such as the treatment approach as well as orthographic and sample characteristics, were also considered. Thirty-four controlled trials that evaluated spelling…

Chamberlain, Jenna M.; Gagné, Christina L.; Spalding, Thomas L.; Lõo, Kaidi – Journal of Experimental Psychology: Learning, Memory, and Cognition, 2020
Three experiments using a spelling error detection task investigated the extent to which morphemes and pseudomorphemes affect word processing. We compared the processing of transparent compound words (e.g., doorbell), pseudocompound words (e.g., carpet), and matched control words (e.g., tomato). In half of the compound and pseudocompound words,…
