Abstract:

Estimates differ, but in general it is assumed that about half of our spoken
and written language consists of stock phrases, formulaic sequences, and
common, semantically transparent combinations of words, also known as lexical
bundles. There is a growing body of experimental work showing that lexical
bundles are read, understood, and pronounced faster than their infrequent
matched controls, which seems to suggest that these bundles function as units
in processing, much like single words.

This thesis focuses on the processing of Dutch lexical bundles, and does so by
considering them from different angles: How do we read lexical bundles? Are
there differences in processing between age groups? How do we process spoken
lexical bundles? And how do we produce them? In answering these questions, a
wide range of experimental methods, and both statistical and computational
modeling are employed.
