A Corpus-based Analysis of Speech Repairs in Japanese

09/1997;
Source: CiteSeer

ABSTRACT this paper is preliminary, it basically showed that Levelt's monitoring theory holds for speech repairs naturally occurring in Japanese dialogues except for the timing of trouble detection and the nonretracing strategy in substitution of function words. These exceptions might indicate a difference of cognitive linguistic units between Japanese and other languages like Dutch. This issue is the next target of our study.
