Abstract:

This Element focuses on phonetic and phonological development in
multilinguals and presents a novel methodological approach to it
within Complex Dynamic Systems Theory (CDST). We will show how the
traditional conceptualisations of acquisition with a strong focus on
linear, incremental development with a stable endpoint can be
complemented by a view of language development as emergent,
self-organised, context-dependent and highly variable across learners.
We report on a longitudinal study involving 16 learners with L1
German, L2 English and L3 Polish. Over their ten months of learning
Polish, the learners' perception and production of various speech
sounds and phonological processes in all of their languages were
investigated. Auditory and acoustic analyses were applied together
with group and individual learner statistical analyses to trace the
dynamic changes of their multilingual phonological system over time.
We show how phonetic and phonological development is feature-dependent
and inter-connected and how learning experience affects the process.
