Case study 2: Nonce verbs: A psycholinguistic<br />
experiment<br />
76<br />
• 40 participants<br />
– 20 adults<br />
– 20 children (6–13 years)<br />
• Presentation:<br />
This is a Funny-game. I will be showing you some pictures, and then<br />
you will tell me what is happening in the pictures. The only thing is<br />
that you are not going to do it in Icelandic, you are going to tell me in<br />
Funny-language. Now, Funny-language is almost identical to Icelandic,<br />
there are only a few words that are different, and you don’t have to<br />
worry about that because I will teach you those words.<br />
