| Outline of Final Research Achievements |
The present study aims to examine how foreign accents derived from one’s first language (L1) affect second language (L2) sentence comprehension processes in communications between non-native speakers of English from different L1 backgrounds. Japanese L1 learners of L2 English listened to a series of English sentences produced by Chinese, Japanese, Korean, and Thai L1 speakers. The listeners found English utterances by Japanese and Korean speakers easy to understand, possibly due to the similarity in phonetic and phonological features between the two languages, while the Chinese and Thai speakers’ English utterances posed comprehension difficulties.
