Prediction in bilingual sentence processing: How prediction differs in a later learned language from a first language
(Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2022-10-27)This review provides an update on what we know about differences in prediction in a first and second language after several years of extensive research. It shows when L1/L2 differences are most likely to occur and provides an explanation as to why they occur. For example, L2 speakers may capitalize more on semantic information for prediction than L1 speakers, or possibly they do not make predictions ... -
Cross-linguistic Influence in L3 Acquisition of English by Persian Heritage Speakers in Norway
(Mastergradsoppgave; Master thesis, 2022-09-14)Aims and objectives: This thesis investigates cross-linguistic influence (CLI) in child third language (L3) acquisition. The main objectives are to find the source of CLI, whether it is L1, L2, or both, and to find out whether CLI occurs on a property-by-property basis or as a wholesale phenomenon. Methodology: Persian-Norwegian heritage bilinguals acquiring L3 English are compared to L2 English ... -
The case for case in Putin’s speeches
(Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2022-10-25)Vladimir V. Putin has banned the use of the word ‘war’ to refer to the conflict in Ukraine. While one’s choice of words is deliberate and conscious, grammatical categories are obligatory and pivotal to signaling the roles notions have in a discourse. Over- and underrepresentation of grammatical cases can be identified by Keymorph Analysis, which measures deviations from corpus norms analogously to ... -
Word order and finiteness in acquisition: A study of English and Norwegian wh-questions
(Chapter; Bokkapittel, 2016-08-25)Children acquiring languages such as English, German or Dutch typically go through a phase where they produce non-finite root clauses, often referred to as the Optional Infinitive (OI) stage. But there is a difference between English on the one hand and the other Germanic languages on the other with respect to the occurrence of non-finite wh-questions: while there is a high number of OIs in English ... -
Universitetsskoler som arena for nye partnerskap og profesjonskvalifisering
(Chapter; Bokkapittel, 2017)Samarbeid mellom universitet/høgskole og skole om lærerutdanning har som ideell målsetting å utvikle studentenes lærerprofesjonalitet. En forutsetning for slik profesjonalitet er å kunne forholde seg til og bruke ulike kunnskapsformer, som akademias teoretiske og skolenes erfaringsbaserte kunnskap, for å fremme elevens læring. For å lykkes kreves et tett samarbeid mellom institusjonene. I dette ... -
Tilpasset opplæring- Et urimelig krav for nyutdannede lærere i møte med praksis?
(Mastergradsoppgave; Master thesis, 2021-10-24)Denne kvalitative masteroppgaven bygger på prosjektet Relemast, som er en forkortelse for relevant master utdanning for grunnskolelærere. Relemast er en longitudinell studie som har samlet inn data siden 2015. De 44 nyutdannede lærerne som utgjør datagrunnlaget for prosjektet Relemast, ble først intervjuet når de var studenter, deretter når de hadde levert masteroppgaven, etterfulgt av å være i ... -
Jüngere Tertiärsprachenlerner, gleiche Tertiärsprachenlehrerausbildung? Nachdenken über Anforderungen an die Ausbildung von norwegischen Fremdsprachenlehrern und -lehrerinnen für die Primarstufe (1.-7. Klasse )
(Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2013-04-28)Die Erfahrungen von Probeläufen an zahlreichen norwegischen Grundschulen (1.-7. Klasse) in den letzten Jahren deuten darauf hin, dass man den Unterricht in der 2. Fremdsprache (nach Englisch als 1. Fremdsprache ab der 1. Klasse) bereits früher als bisher in der 8. Klasse anbieten sollte. Ein solcher “Früher Start” wiederum stellt gewisse Anforderungen an die Fremdsprachenlehrerausbildung. Vor ... -
Wh-less degree questions
(Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2017-08-22)As described in Endresen (1985) and Bull (1987) Norwegian dialects in Trøndelag and North Norway have a way of forming degree questions without the use of a wh-expression and without the syntax that normally accompanies wh-questions. Taken at face value the construction takes the form of regular yes/no-questions. Consider the pair in (1) showing a Standard Norwegian degree question (1a) compared to ... -
'I know the world in two languages': Sámi multilingual citizenship in textbooks for the school subject Norwegian between 1997 and 2020
(Chapter; Bokkapittel, 2022)This article presents how Sámi multilingual citizenship is represented in four textbooks for the school subject Norwegian in junior high school (school years 8–10). The books were published between 1997 and 2020. Based on insights from critical discourse analysis as well as research on language ideologies and multilingual citizenship, the study shows how textbooks gradually present a more detailed ... -
Monolingual comparative normativity in bilingualism research is out of “control”: Arguments and alternatives
(Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2022)Herein, we contextualize, problematize and offer some insights for moving beyond the problem of monolingual comparative normativity in (psycho)linguistic research on bilingualism. We argue that, in the vast majority of cases, juxtaposing (functional) monolinguals to bilinguals fails to offer what the comparison is supposedly intended to do: meet the standards of empirical control in line with ... -
Are translation equivalents really equivalent? Evidence from concreteness effects in translation priming.
(Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2022)Translation equivalents intuitively seem to overlap in meaning. Moreover, the models of the bilingual lexicon often represent the meaning shared between two translations as a holistic node in the semantic network. However, research on semantic representation and processing questions this holistic approach. For instance, abstract words are assumed to be more language-dependent, while concrete ... -
The role of conferences within Arctic governance
(Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2020-07-27)Since the end of the Cold War, the Arctic has transformed from a geopolitical buffer, to becoming a core national priority for the Arctic states, and a desirable playing field for non-Arctic actors. Geopolitical changes and a growing concern for the impacts of climate change have led to increased attention towards the Arctic region, which has prompted an extensive growth in the establishment ... -
Ich weiß ja, was im Plan steht, aber was genau soll ich eigentlich im Unterricht machen – Bericht über eine erste Pilotuntersuchung hinsichtlich des Fort- und Weiterbildungsbedarfs bei norwegischen Deutschlehrern
(Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2020-04-28)Norwegische Deutschlehrer unterrichten seit 13 Jahren nach dem geltenden Lehrplan K06. Ein neuer Lehrplan wird 2020 eingeführt. Welchen Fort- und Weiterbildungsbedarf sehen Fachlehrer nach langjährigen Erfahrungen mit dem Lehrplan K06? Dieser Frage geht die vorliegende Pilotstudie nach. Sie liefert ein erstes Datenmaterial, das eine wichtige Grundlage für eine zukünftige umfassende Bedarfsanalyse ... -
Einleitung in den Themenschwerpunkt: DaF-Lehrerausbildung in Europa außerhalb der D-A-CH-Länder
(Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2020-04-28)Der DaF-Unterricht in Europa außerhalb der D-A-CH-Länder steht großen Herausforderungen gegenüber. Während ‚man‘ früher einfach auch Deutsch an west-europäischen Schulen lernte, halten mehr und mehr SchülerInnen es heute für überflüssig, weitere Sprachen neben Englisch zu lernen. Auch die Konkurrenz von anderen zweiten Fremdsprachen wie Spanisch, Chinesisch und Arabisch macht sich bemerkbar. ... -
Experience-Related Differences on Attentional Control in Cognitive Ageing: An Investigation of Bilingualism Effects on Flanker Conflicts in TFRs
(Mastergradsoppgave; Master thesis, 2022-09-15)Bilingualism has been argued to help maintain cognitive functioning in ageing by contributing to the cognitive reserve, the brain’s functional adaptability and resilience against cognitive decline. Within this, the constant engagement with bilingual mechanisms to monitor multiple languages arguably leads to neurocognitive adaptations of attentional systems. Examining bilingual experience as a spectrum, ... -

"Bliva" and "varda"
(Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2017-08-22)In this chapter, we discuss the use of the auxiliaries (or copulas) bliva and varda in the Nordic varieties. The phenomenon investigated is slightly different from the other phenomena discussed in NALS Volume 1 in that it is not really a syntactic phenomenon, but rather a lexical one. Bliva and varda are used as auxiliaries in periphrastic passives (followed by a passive participle), but they ... -

Til en ung en kjekk en kar: Indefinite determiner spreading in Scandinavian and beyond
(Chapter; Bokkapittel, 2019-12-07)This study investigates multiple indefinite determiners in structures involving adjectival modification in a Norwegian dialect. Determiner spreading has been observed in numerous non-standard Germanic varieties but has been most extensively explored in Modern Greek. This paper considers recurring indefinites in Norwegian in light of Greek polydefi nites, fi nding numerous similarities. In both ... -
The asymmetric nature of V2: Evidence from learner languages
(Chapter; Bokkapittel, 2019-12-07)In the field of Germanic linguistics, there has been a long-standing debate as to the question of how to analyze sentences with verb second (V2) word order. In particular, the question has been whether or not subject-initial and non-subject-initial main clause declaratives should receive the same structural analysis. Here we review this debate and provide new evidence from learner languages involving ...
