跨语言视域下日语塞音感知与生成界面的动态发展

Abstract:The research reported how students learning Japanese as a third language（L3）perceived and produced stop contrasts，and the dynamic development of the link between perception and production. The participants in the study were 20 Chinese university students who spoke Mandarin Chinese as their first language（L1），English as their second language（L2），and Japanese as their L3. An L3 identification task，and an L3 reading task were used to investigate the learners’ perception and production of stops. The results demonstrated that the ability to identify Japanese voiceless stops significantly improved through the acquisition，and there was a stable positive correlation between the perception and production of voiceless stops. On the other hand，it is difficult to produce L3 voiced stops，and it is not contributed by the acquisition stage. It might be due to the cross-linguistic influence of the previous language stop contrasts and the universal physiological mechanism.
