However, it is unclear whether C-BLI is equally effective for heritage language (HL) learners. 30 L2 and 27 HL learners of Korean completed a series of tasks designed in a pre-intervention-post-test model that focused on speech level through verbal morphology of honorific second-person address forms. The positive change seen in self-reported understanding of speech level from pre- to post-test in both groups was not significantly different, indicating equal self-reported gains in understanding, regardless of group. However, the qualitative analysis showed differences in the ways that L2 and HL learners verbalized their understanding and appropriateness judgments of speech level. The findings provide evidence that HL learners benefit equally in overall growth, although slightly differently in how they develop, from C-BLI.","PeriodicalId":424930,"journal":{"name":"Heritage Language Journal","volume":"98 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-08-22","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"126894544","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The differences can be categorized as differences of phonetic implementation and frequency of use. They cannot easily be attributed to transfer from the majority languages. Rather, the increased use of upsteps on the verb can be characterized as a compensation strategy to make the pitch accent on the verb the most prominent, even if an earlier accent has been realized on the subject.","PeriodicalId":424930,"journal":{"name":"Heritage Language Journal","volume":"41 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-06-21","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"131121617","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The present exploratory study, focusing on Keertanam and Bhajanam classes in one village temple, investigates the connection between faith practices, faith literacy practices, ancestral languages, and identities in that setting. Data were collected through participant observation, informal conversations with members of the community, and artifacts. The data indicate that the members of the observed Telugu community are endeavoring to revivify and reinvigorate an (imagined) ancestral language (in its oral and written forms) by using a faith practice that has been passed down generations and by drawing on the scriptal resources at their disposal. We argue that members of the observed Telugu community use these strategies to maintain, articulate, and publicly display their ethno-religio-linguistic identity and distinctiveness within the larger Hindu community in Mauritius.","PeriodicalId":424930,"journal":{"name":"Heritage Language Journal","volume":"297 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-06-21","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"123274392","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

As phonetic variability is known to affect the acquisition of certain grammatical markers, we examine whether bilinguals’ gender difficulties relate to bilingual contact-induced phonetic variability, namely, reduction in the inventory of word-final unstressed vowels. We analyzed narratives from children in the United States (n = 49, ages 4–12). All NP  s (n = 1415) were analyzed for structure, noun class, and morphology. Word-final vowels were sub-selected for acoustic analyses. Morpho-syntactically, group results show high accuracy with gender (95%), but with wide individual variation (44%–100%). Speakers also show individual variability and substantive numbers of vowel misclassifications (6%–33%) with higher variability for /a/ and /o/. We found bilingual effects in both domains but no association between phonetics and gender accuracy. These findings have implications for the relationship between phonetics and grammar, and for the morphosyntax of Spanish gender.","PeriodicalId":424930,"journal":{"name":"Heritage Language Journal","volume":"48 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-06-21","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"116872402","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

However, some studies have used participants’ ratings of frequency of words and proficiency as proxies for frequency of use and activation. Regarding lexical frequency, some studies have relied on language corpora, while others have used participants’ self-ratings. This study explores the relationships between these variables, comparing 53 Spanish HS’ frequency of HL use with their self-ratings of thirty verbs, proficiency, and age of onset of bilingualism. Self-ratings correlated weakly with frequency of use while proficiency and age of onset did not, but the rankings of verbs according to participants’ self-ratings correlated with those from three corpora. Therefore, proficiency and age of onset may not be ideal proxies for activation, but the two techniques used to measure lexical frequency show a robust relationship with each other.","PeriodicalId":424930,"journal":{"name":"Heritage Language Journal","volume":"8 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-03-31","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"115009223","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
