Abstract:
And even though I do not think that most domain-general models of L SB 1 sb /L SB 2 sb acquisition are going to come under further scrutiny, Mazuka's distinction is likely to be valuable for domain-specific models of acquisition (of phonology). Yes, L SB 2 sb learners do not parse de-RCs in the same way as native speakers do, but that only indicates that they have not achieved ultimate attainment; not that there are fundamental differences in L SB 1 sb and L SB 2 sb processing. Martohardjono, Valian and Klein (MVK) take up the deficit and transfer accounts (d/t) of L SB 2 sb acquisition in their chapter, while looking at acquisition of tense. [Extracted from the article]
