Caspers, Johanneke 2014 Pitch accent placement in Dutch as a second language: An exploratory investigationAbove and Beyond the Segments: Experimental linguistics and phonetics, Caspers, Johanneke, Yiya Chen, Willemijn Heeren, Jos Pacilly, Niels O. Schiller and Ellen van Zanten (eds.), pp. 28–41 | Article
How do non-native speakers of Dutch differ from native speakers in pitch accent placement? Previous investigations report over-accentuation, but there is also evidence that non-native (L2) speakers have no problems accenting new information and deaccenting given information. A text was read aloud… read more
Post da Silveira, Amanda, Vincent J. van Heuven, Johanneke Caspers and Niels O. Schiller 2014 Dual activation of word stress from orthographyDutch Journal of Applied Linguistics 3:2, pp. 171–198 | Article
Studies in bilingualism have shown that words activate form-similar neighbors in both first (L1) and second (L2) languages. Accordingly, we hypothesized that the degree of form similarity between L1–L2 word pairs causes a proportional amount of prosodic transfer in L2 speech production. Thus,… read more

A non-native accent in a second language is usually not restricted to the segmental domain — consonants and vowels — but is also noticeable in the suprasegmental domain, which includes phenomena such as word stress and sentence accent. The central question in this paper is whether advanced… read more

Caspers, Johanneke en Ton van der Wouden 2008 The Perception Of Modal Particles In Dutch As a Second LanguageT2-verwerving: Onderzoek ontmoet onderwijsparktijk, pp. 9–18 | Article
Dutch is a language with numerous modal particles, such as zeker in "Jij bent zeker Jan?" (Tou must be Jan'). The colouring that these unaccented modal particles add to the utterance is very hard to describe. The prediction that the acquisition of modal particles is difficult for learners of Dutch… read more
