Cover Story: This study is one of only a few to examine the effect of experimentally induced code-switches on the phonetics of the native language of late bilinguals, and the first to systematically investigate individual variation and predictor variables. Late sequential Standard Southern British English/Austrian German bilinguals showed L2-induced shifts in L1 speech during code-switched, but not monolingual contexts, and only for a subset of sounds. Such shifts are not inevitable, though, since nearly a third of the bilinguals did not exhibit a difference in their production of the target sounds. Unlike previous work, the present study found shifts to occur both before and after a code-switch, with a range of patterns observed across individuals and groups. Finally, only the amount of L2 use was a significant predictor of L2-induced shifts, and only in the production of one of the sounds examined. View this paper.
