SUMMARY:CLS Speaker Series - Laura Rodrigo (Penn State) A Cross-Linguistic Analy
sis of Sentence Production: Exploring the Interplay of Structural and Le
xical Planning in Languages with Different Word Order
DESCRIPTION:A Cross-Linguistic Analysis of Sentence Production: Explorin
g the Interplay of Structural and Lexical Planning in Languages with Dif
ferent Word Order\n\nSpeech planning involves different steps in order t
o transform a conceptual message into speech. These include establishing
structural relations among constituents (i.e.\, relational information)
\, and selecting the appropriate lexical items to convey the intended me
ssage (non-relational elements). These two types of information are ofte
n interrelated and confounded. Therefore\, the precise way relational an
d non-relational information are computed when undertaking linguistic en
coding is still not clear. In this talk I will explore how the pre-lingu
istic message undergoes linguistic encoding\, and what kind of informati
on (relational or non-relational) is prioritized in doing so. To do so\,
I will present data from two projects aimed to teasing apart the effect
s of word order in sentence planning. First\, I will present data in Kaq
chikel language\, a Mayan language spoken in Guatemala\, which canonical
word order is VOS\, with SVO being widely used. After it\, I will prese
nt data in the production planning of Relative Clauses in Japanese (a he
ad-final language)\, in comparison with Spanish (a head-initial language
). Sentence planning was explored by means of the eye-tracking method wh
ile participants described pictures. Results in both cases point to a pl
anning process that prioritizes structural relations over access to lexi
cal elements in order in the planning of complex structures\, with room
for flexibility when the grammar of the language\, or the order selected
\, allows so. Implications of these results for models of speech product
ion will be discussed.\n\nFor more details: https://events.la.psu.edu/ev

uction: Exploring the Interplay of Structural and Lexical Planning in La
nguages with Different Word Order
Speech planning involves di
fferent steps in order to transform a conceptual message into speech. Th
ese include establishing structural relations among constituents (i.e.,
relational information), and selecting the appropriate lexical it
ems to convey the intended message (non-relational elements). The
se two types of information are often interrelated and confounded. There
fore, the precise way relational and non-relational information are comp
uted when undertaking linguistic encoding is still not clear. In this ta
lk I will explore how the pre-linguistic message undergoes linguistic en
coding, and what kind of information (relational or non-relational) is p
rioritized in doing so. To do so, I will present data from two projects
aimed to teasing apart the effects of word order in sentence planning. F
irst, I will present data in Kaqchikel language, a Mayan language spoken
in Guatemala, which canonical word order is VOS, with SVO being widely
used. After it, I will present data in the production planning of Relati
ve Clauses in Japanese (a head-final language), in comparison with Spani
sh (a head-initial language). Sentence planning was explored by means of
the eye-tracking method while participants described pictures. Results
in both cases point to a planning process that prioritizes structural re
lations over access to lexical elements in order in the planning of comp
lex structures, with room for flexibility when the grammar of the langua
ge, or the order selected, allows so. Implications of these results for
models of speech production will be discussed.
