Exempel på lexical

• We can differentiate these categories as purely lexical, rather than syntactic.

• Therefore, word frequency may not be a purely lexical or semantic variable.

• They contrast with syntactic representations, which are structured in terms of lexical heads and grammatical functions or relations.

• This account of the developmental differences is consistent with other studies of children's lexical and phonological representations.

• Therefore, it is possible that homonyms would be responded to more accurately than novel words in a task emphasizing lexical representations, such as picture naming.

• Under this account, if children's lexical representations are stored as sub-units, they are then able to access more stable units with increased accuracy.

• Thus, changes in known lexical representations may lead to changes in homonym learning but not novel word learning.

• It may be that syllable structure may not play a role in the organization of lexical representations, but may influence the organization of phonological representations.

• Past studies have focused on the effects of density on spoken language processing, rather than the effects of density on the structure of lexical representations.

• It will be important for future work to continue to address these issues by attempting to differentiate lexical from phonological representations.

• A related issue is the influence of other phonological variables on lexical representations.

• In effect, they amount to introducing syntactic diacritics in the lexical semantic representations.

• The third issue is that of predictable information in lexical representations.

• This suggests that language production can be greatly enhanced by the prior activation of relevant linguistic representations (in this case, lexical and syntactic representations).

• As speakers and listeners use particular lexical, semantic, and syntactic representations, some of these representations become bound into routines.
