Across
  1. 3. bilinguals, a similar degree of proficiency and behavioral performance
  2. 4. system, each language represented in separate systems
  3. 9. system, identical items are represented in a single underlying neural substrate common to both, but different items have own-language representations
  4. 14. speech, systematic deviation of a particular native speech norm; Determined by phonetic differences and similarities between the native norm of the foreign-accented speaker and the native listener; Phonetically-based speech distortion
  5. 15. bilinguals, L1 and L2 are used in different contexts
  6. 16. context-specific selection of language norms; common in coordinated bilinguals
  7. 19. Simultaneous, bilinguals exposed to L2 since a young age
Down
  1. 1. Sequential, bilinguals exposed to L2 at an older age
  2. 2. system, larger language system contains two subsystems
  3. 5. bilinguals, unbalanced degree of proficiency and behavioral performance across language competences
  4. 6. period, Back-frontal cortical development in infants
  5. 7. switching, top-down controlled and can be modulated by language dominance. It is typically more effortful to switch back to the dominant language (L1)
  6. 8. bilinguals, L1 and L2 share contextual frames
  7. 9. of primary perceptual cues from the dominant language background; Very common in unbalanced early bilinguals and long-term immigrants
  8. 10. system, undifferentiated representations
  9. 11. Listeners adapt easily to accents
  10. 12. of secondary perceptual cues; common in unbalanced late bilinguals
  11. 13. local switching "my laptop no function"
  12. 17. control, Bilinguals seem to recruit cognitive control networks associated with the processing of effortful speech and executive functioning
  13. 18. switching, global switching across full language competences
