Abstract
Words sharing initial segments in the native language are briefly activated during the recognition of spoken words. For example, given the input desk, English listeners will initially activate desk and dentist among other candidates, which will then compete with each other for recognition. However, when one listens to a nonnative language, words from the native language might also share initial segments with the input.
