摘要:Cross-linguistic Transfer (CLT) concerns the influence that one language exerts over another. Specifically at the lexical level, facilitative CLT effects have been described with cognates (formally and semantically similar or identical words), and clangs (formally similar words with different meanings (Ringbom, 2007). This study examined the behavioral and neural correlates of CLT, as a function of phonological similarities in a group of Spanish speakers (LI) learning French as a second language (L2).
