Cover Story: Language learners' knowledge of a word's meaning can shape the formation and quality of its orthographic representations, but the impact of morphemic meaning frequency on word recognition remains to be explored. This study investigates how learners of Chinese as a second language recognize compound words containing ambiguous morphemes with varying frequencies. Results indicate that dominant meanings enhance orthographic representation, as dominant-meaning primes were found to facilitate the recognition of subordinate-meaning targets but not vice versa. Aligned with the Lexical Constituent Model, these findings highlight the influence of meaning on form representation and sublexical form-meaning connections. View this paper
