Abstract | Investigated effects of first language (L1) orthographic features on second language (L2) reading. Three groups of fluent (L2) readers with different L1 backgrounds were given English passages printed in either alternated case or a normal manner and asked to read them for comprehension. Results suggest that because of L1 effects on basic processing in L2 reading, L2 readers with nonalphabetic L1 backgrounds were less efficient in processing English words. (Author/VWL) |
