Abstract
There
has been in recent years an upsurge of interest in the cognitive study
of the Chinese language. This is related, at least to some extent, to
economic developments in China. More importantly, cognitive researchers
have realized that the Chinese language provides challenging opportunities
to explore language-specific processes involved in comprehension and
communication, and to challenge the universality of theories developed
from the study of European languages. In this talk, I will review recent
research on Chinese language processing and discuss possible directions
for future investigation.
