🇨🇿 and 🇸🇰 comprehenders show agreement attraction effects in gender agreement, but only (!) when both the attractor and the head are case-syncretic with the nominative (read: the form looks the same). The effect is super tiny (-5ms) and difficult to accommodate under cue-based retrieval!

I want to tell you a story. In 2015, I was in the small Lithuanian city of Panevežys, standing with the locals, watching a military parade. But this was no ordinary parade, because marching alongside the Lithuanian troops were our American allies.🧵1/17

New paper alert 🚨 Languages like 🇨🇿 have negative concord - you must always say "I didn't see nobody" to express a single negation. I looked at whether the mechanism that processes this online is susceptible to illusions just like NPIs or agreement are. And it turns out it is!

Move over bouba-kiki! New study on crossmodal iconicity shows [r] = rough and [l] = smooth, even in langs that conflate them. The results show "that speech sounds are not just acoustic objects, but they also have a texture and a shape to them". #iconicity 🐦🐦

More (or should I say less 🤔) number agreement attraction in 🇨🇿! Our paper with Jan Chromý and Jakub Dotlačil suggests that the phenomenon is either absent in the language or very small in size 1/n
