Özet (Çeviri)
Subject pronoun expression has been thoroughly studied for effects of language contact, but it is fairly recent that these studies started including cross-linguistic structural priming paradigms (Travis, Torres Cacoullos & Kidd, 2017). Cross-language structural priming not only provides valuable insights into cross-language activation processes in bilinguals, but also into the mechanisms underlying contact-induced language change (e.g., Kootstra and Muysken, 2017). Turkish is a pro-drop language unlike Dutch. An early study with Turkish-Dutch bilinguals reported instances of unconventional use of subject pronouns due to contact with Dutch (Do ˘gruöz, 2014). In a structural priming experiment, we investigated the on-going change of subject pronoun use in Turkish spoken in the Netherlands in both monolingual and bilingual settings. A cross-language interaction between Turkish and Dutch was expected, resulting in more overt pronoun use and stronger priming of overt pronouns in Turkish that is in contact with Dutch (bilingual setting) than in Turkish alone (monolingual setting). 28 Turkish-Dutch bilinguals listened to audio stories, which were constructed to create a pragmatic context that allowed pro-drop. Each story ended with a sentence instructing participants to say something to an interlocutor from the story. This final sentence was the prime sentence, which was manipulated in terms of the subject pronoun it had (overt or dropped). Participants were asked to provide their responses aloud as if they were directly talking to this interlocutor. To investigate priming in monolingual and bilingual settings, the experiment consisted of two blocks: In the first (monolingual) block, both the story and prime sentence were in Turkish. In the second (bilingual) block, the story was always in Dutch, and the prime sentence was in Turkish. Participants always had to respond in Turkish. A mixed-effects logistic regression analysis revealed a main effect for language mode and a significant interaction between language mode and the primed structure. Consistent with our hypothesis on cross-language structural priming, overt subject pronouns were used more in the bilingual setting following a prime sentence with an overt than a null pronoun. Contrary to our expectation, the participants were more likely use an overt subject pronoun in the monolingual than in the bilingual setting. Our findings, which are based on a structure and a language that have not yet been studied much in relation to structural priming (i.e., subject pronoun use in Turkish), strengthens the empirical basis of how structural priming influences syntactic choices in language contact settings.
