Abstract | The commentary addresses the use of nativelikeness and non-nativelikeness in research relating to the age factor in L2A (Second Language Acquisition). The author suggests that, in the context of the Critical Period Hypothesis (CPH) as it applies to L2A, the criteria of nativelikeness and non-nativelikeness may be subject to abuse. He also argues that the use of the monolingual native standard for falsification of the CPH is undermined by departures from monolingual nativelikeness that are artifacts of the nature of bilingualism. Finally, he discusses ways that evidence of (non-)nativelikeness can be put to constructive use in research that investigates the upper limits of L2A attainment. (Verlag, adapt.). |
