讲座摘要

This talk reports on an empirical study examining how English- and Korean-speaking learners of L2 Chinese process forward- and backward-looking classifier-noun (dis)agreement in Chinese. Native Chinese speakers and advanced English- and Korean-speaking learners completed an acceptability judgment task (AJT) and a self-paced reading (SPR) task, using sentences in which the classifier precedes the noun (forward-looking) or follows a topicalised noun (backward-looking). In the AJT, both learner groups, like native Chinese speakers, reliably distinguished agreement from disagreement in both configurations. In the SPR, native speakers showed clear disruptions at violations at the post-critical region in both configurations. Korean-speaking learners showed a reliable effect in forward-looking conditions but not in backward-looking ones, while English-speaking learners showed no effect in either. These results suggest that advanced L2 learners command the classifier-noun agreement constraint off-line but recruit it selectively during incremental processing. Based on our findings, we argue that L2 processing is “noisier” than L1 processing and that the L2 parser is likely to be affected by distracting “noises”, which will be elaborated in the discussion part of the talk.
