The Lexicon–Syntax Interface in Second Language Acquisition
Edited by Roeland van Hout, Aafke Hulk, Folkert Kuiken and Richard J. Towell
Second language acquisition has to integrate the totality of the SLA process, which includes both the learning of the core syntax of a language and the learning of the lexical items that have to be incorporated into that syntax. But these two domains involve different kinds of learning. Syntax is… read more[Language Acquisition and Language Disorders, 30] 2003. viii, 234 pp.
Variation, Change, and Phonological Theory
Edited by Frans Hinskens, Roeland van Hout and W. Leo Wetzels
There is a growing awareness that a fruitful cooperation between the (diachronic and synchronic) study of language variation and change and work in phonological theory is both possible and desirable. The study of language variation and change would benefit from this kind of cooperation on the… read more[Current Issues in Linguistic Theory, 146] 1997. x, 314 pp.

2021 Differences in phonological awareness performance: Are there positive or negative effects of bilingual experience? Linguistic Approaches to Bilingualism 11:3, pp. 418–451 | Article
Children who have knowledge of two languages may show better phonological awareness than their monolingual peers (e.g. Bruck & Genesee, 1995). It remains unclear how much bilingual experience is needed for such advantages to appear, and whether differences in language or cognitive skills alter… read more

In view of the fact that Netherlandic Standard Dutch has been found to be stratifying – i.e. incorporating regional accent variation to allow speakers to profile local group membership in addition to their national affiliation – an evident question is whether non-Dutch accents are also tolerated in… read more
2015 Got class? Community-shared conceptualizations of social class in evaluative reactions to sociolinguistic variables Responses to Language Varieties: Variability, processes and outcomes, Prikhodkine, Alexei and Dennis R. Preston (eds.), pp. 159–174 | Article
In recent years, researchers have successfully used information about cultural identity and consumption behavior to uncover class-based variation in linguistic production data. Is this variation reflected in implicit class-related language attitudes, of which listeners may not even be aware? And… read more

However, this vision of dialectology (oriented towards the rural part of society)… read more
