Sophie Dufour, CNRS research director at LPL, has just published two articles with Jonathan Grainger (LPC) and Jonathan Mirault (LPC) on the perception of non-words. The first study seeks to understand whether non-words created by the transposition of two phonemes (/ʃoloka/) are perceived as being more similar compared to their base words (/ʃokola/) [chocolate] than non-words created by substituting two phonemes (/ʃoropa/). Then, in the second article, the authors continue their research by positioning the phonemes differently within the non-word.
