Abstract

This study investigates how age of second language acquisition influences the embodiment of action verb meaning in bilinguals. Using ERP methods and source localization, we compare early and late bilinguals’ neural responses to hand- and foot-related verbs. Findings will clarify how bilingual experience shapes semantic grounding and sensorimotor activation.
