| Research Abstract |
In this study, we conducted an experiment to unravel the mechanism of sentence processing during the parsing of scrambled sentences in Korean as L1 and L2. The result showed more activation at the left inferior frontal gyrus (IFG) and the left middle frontal gyrus (MFG) during the comprehension of scrambled sentences than that of canonical sentences. This indicates, in accordance with previous findings on scrambling from neurolinguistic perspectives, that scrambling in Korean is indeed a grammatical operation and that the parsing strategy for the asymmetric antecedent-gap relationship demands an additional cognitive activation in the brain.
