Day 2 of our UCL Global Engagement visit to see our colleagues Bobby Po-Heng Chen and Charlene Lee at National Taiwan University - Prof Jenni Rodd gave a thought-provoking talk on how listeners understand the meanings of words.

Bobby Po-Heng Chen Marco Marelli Kathy Rastle Thank you Bobby!

Couldn’t agree this more! Words are building blocks of human languages. We understand words, we learn words, and we use words in countless contexts to express ourselves and communicate with others.

Very interesting paper using network science to analyse late L1 Spanish–L2 English bilinguals’ semantic fluency data, demonstrating that L2 immersion not only led to more interconnected and less modular L2 semantic network, but also weakened the L1 semantic system.

Prof Jenni Rodd UCL Global Engagement Rachael Hulme Bobby Po-Heng Chen Charlene Lee So jealous!!

Another packed day meeting new people and hearing about their science. So much exciting work going on here in Taiwan.
