Word informativity influences acoustic duration: effects of contextual predictability on lexical representation.
Cognition(2014)
摘要
•Language-users reduce words in predictable contexts.•Wordform reduction may be encoded in representation if it occurs sufficiently often.•Words that usually occur in predictable contexts are usually reduced.•Corpus data show that usually-predictable words are reduced even when unpredictable.•This suggests that predictability-driven reduction is stored in word representation.
