abstract：:In this study we investigate the production of verb inflection in agrammatic aphasia. In a number of recent studies it has been argued that tense inflection is harder to produce for agrammatic individuals than agreement inflection. However, results are still inconclusive, at least for Dutch and German. Here, we report...

abstract：:An analysis of 166 word blends provides support for the claim that word frequency effects are located at the phonological level of lexical access. The traditional structural approach to blends has been to view them as involving a sequence of two words where word(2) completes an incomplete word(1), as in yes/right-->yi...
