01
Front

What distinguishes comprehension from production?

Back

Comprehension interprets incoming language, while production turns an intended message into words and, in speech, articulatory movements.

02
Front

What does incremental comprehension mean?

Back

Incremental comprehension means interpreting language as it arrives rather than waiting until the sentence ends.

03
Front

How do comprehenders predict what comes next?

Back

Listeners and readers use context, linguistic knowledge, and experience to form probabilistic expectations about what may come next.

04
Front

What is prediction by production?

Back

Prediction by production proposes that comprehenders recruit some processes used to produce language to anticipate an upcoming utterance.

05
Front

When can prediction be especially useful?

Back

Prediction can make comprehension more efficient when input is rapid, ambiguous, or noisy.

06
Front

How does a comprehender respond to an unexpected word?

Back

When an unexpected word arrives, the comprehender updates the interpretation using the incoming sound and context.

07
Front

What do speakers monitor in their own utterances?

Back

Speakers check their utterances for problems such as an incorrect word, a grammatical mistake, or a mismatch with their intention.

08
Front

What is repair in conversation?

Back

Repair addresses trouble in speaking, hearing, or understanding so participants can restore sufficiently shared understanding.

09
Front

How can comprehension and production interact?

Back

They can draw on overlapping linguistic knowledge and meaning representations, even though their input and output demands differ.

10
Front

Are predictions during comprehension certain?

Back

Predictions are expectations, not certainties; comprehenders can revise their interpretation when different input arrives.

11
Front

What remains unsettled about prediction by production?

Back

Evidence does not establish that all comprehension prediction depends on production; the extent of production-specific involvement remains debated.

12
Front

When can speech monitoring occur?

Back

Monitoring can happen before an utterance is spoken by checking an internal representation, or after speech begins by listening to one’s voice.
