Questions for this talk 1. What is the rate of ”complete” SL acquisition among late learners? (Selinker, 1972: 5 %; Birdsong, 1999, 2005: 15%; Piller, 2005: 45%; Bley-Vroman, 1989: 0 %) 2. What is the rate among prepuberty learners? (Hyltenstam, 1992; Tsukada, Birdsong, Bialystok, Mack, Sung & Flege, 2005) 3. What is the rate perceived nativelikeness? 4. What is the rate of scrutinized nativelikeness? 5. To what extent are these rates related to certain age of aquisition spans? Correlations with other background factors? 6. Do patterns of L1 use correlate with degree of perceived or scrutinized nativelikeness in L2? (Flege et al. 1995; Pallier et al. 2003; Ventureyra et al. 2004) 5
