Abstract
This study investigates effects of second-language-proficiency (English) on both speech and co-speech gestures as well as eye gaze information in response to watching and describing motion events in Turkish (first language) and English (second language). Results indicated that second-language-proficiency might have projections on both linguistic and non-linguistic processes.
