Paths and stages in acquisition of the phonological word in Hebrew Acquisition and Development of Hebrew: From infancy to adolescence, Berman, Ruth A. (ed.), pp. 39–68 | Article

Staying away from the weak left edge: A strengthening strategy The Form of Structure, the Structure of Form: Essays in honor of Jean Lowenstamm, Bendjaballah, Sabrina, Noam Faust, Mohamed Lahrouchi and Nicola Lampitelli (eds.), pp. 193–208 | Article
