Wydell, Taeko Nakayama
Reading and Writing: An Interdisciplinary Journal, v10 n3-5 p359-73 Oct 1998
Examines research on the impact of sub-word levels in the computation of word phonology for alphabetic English and logographic Japanese kanji. Suggests some involvement of sub-word level processing in the computation of word phonology in kanji. Suggests structural differences between On-reading words (of Chinese origin) and Kun-reading word (of Japanese origin) may be important factors. (SR)
