“…A few studies have addressed both phonological grammaticality and lexicality by combining illegal sequences, pseudowords and words – the latter congruent and incongruent with the semantic context (Friedrich and Friederici, 2005; Becker et al, 2014; Gansonre et al, 2018), but phonotactic frequency has been left out from the comparison. Studies focusing on phonotactic frequency, on the other hand, have shown that it impacts learning (Gonzalez-Gomez et al, 2013), word likeness judgments (Bailey and Hahn, 2001), pseudoword repetition (Vitevitch and Luce, 1998, 1999, 2005), ERPs (Bonte et al, 2005, 2007; Hunter, 2013; Wiese et al, 2017), and the dynamics of brain connectivity (Gow and Olson, 2015). Moreover, several studies have focused on the processing of real words only (e.g., Payne et al, 2015), or on legal versus illegal sound combinations (e.g., Domahs et al, 2009; Rossi et al, 2011), and a detailed account of the interplay of phonological grammaticality, lexicality and phonotactic frequency during the time course of word processing has not yet been provided.…”
