Mandarin-Taiwanese code-switching

• Sociolinguistic perception, typological description, speech production, and speech perception of the code-switching between typologically similar languages, specifically Mandarin and Taiwanese. 

• Data is mostly from a Mandarin-Taiwanese code-switching corpus I built, which contains ~12 hrs of bilingual speech.

Collaboration

• The processing of T3 sandhi across a word boundary vs. within a word with Dr. Charles Lin

• EEG investigation of the perception of Korean accented speech with Dr. Isabelle Darcy, Dr. Charles Lin, and Dr. Chung-Lin Yang
