Incomplete Acquisition and Attrition of Spanish Tense/Aspect Distinctions in Adult Bilinguals.
Montrul, Silvina
Bilingualism: Language and Cognition, v5 n1 p39-68 Apr 2002
Investigates whether age of onset of bilingualism has an effect on ultimate attainment and documents incomplete acquisition and attrition of tense/aspect morphology in Spanish. Results suggest that morpho-phonological spell-outs and semantic features of functional categories are affected by incomplete acquisition and language loss, and that many of the patterns of divergence found resemble stages of second language acquisition.
