Exploring the L1-L2 Relationship in the L2 Acquisition of Prosody* Laurent Rasier1,2 Philippe Hiligsmann2 Université catholique de Louvain1 F.R.S – FNRS2 Abstract This paper explores the L1-L2 relationship in the L2 acquisition of prosody. The first part of the paper outlines a method to investigate transfer effects in L2 prosody. Then, we report on an experiment in which we examined native and non-native speakers’ use of (de)accentuation to prosodically signal information status in Dutch and French. With the aid of a picture description task in which the information value of the discourse referents was varied experimentally, we elicited both L1 and L2 data from 20 French-speaking learners of Dutch and 20 Dutch-speaking learners of French. The main research question was whether there would be any relationship between the typological distance between the learners’ L1 and L2 (defined in terms of the “markedness relationships” between the two languages) and the occurrence of transfer in their use of (de)accentuation. The results reveal considerable differences between native and non-native speakers on the one hand and between the two groups of L2 learners on the other hand. More specifically, the results support the view that markedness is an important factor in predicting and explaining learning difficulties as well as the cases of prosodic transfer. 1. Introduction The relationship between the mother tongue (L1) and the second language (L2) has been the object of numerous studies in the field of second language acquisition (SLA) research. Much of the discussion has focussed on so-called transfer phenomena that are generally defined as “the incorporation of features of the L1 into the knowledge system of the L2 which the learner is trying to build” (Ellis 1994: 28). After a period in the 1950s-1960s when transfer was seen as the main cause of learning difficulties and a period in the 1970s when it was denied any place in the L2 acquisition process, we have now rea
