This study investigates the influence of high pitch accent on disambiguating syntactically ambiguous sentences to explore the role of prosody in first language (LI) and second language (L2) sentence processing. English LI speakers and advanced Japanese learners of English performed a written version and an auditory version of sentence interpretation tasks containing two types of ambiguities: prepositional phrase (PP) attachment and wh-clause attachment ambiguities. The results from the written task observed Japanese learners' preference for verb attachment in both types of constructions when compared with the English L1 speakers. However, the auditory task indicated that for both LI and L2 groups, no significant effects of high pitch accent on determining the attachment site of the phrases in either type of ambiguity, indicating that pitch accent plays little role in PP attachment and wh-clause attachment disambiguation for both LI speakers and L2 learners.
