This study examines frequently used allomorphs-plural suffixes (word-internal) and indefinite/definite articles (word-external)-in Spanish and English as produced by heritage speakers in the U.S., early bilinguals in Mexico, and monolingual speakers of each language. Specifically, plural morphemes (Spanish: /-s, -es/; English: /-s, -z, -ɪz/) and indefinite/definite articles (Spanish: un/una, el/la; English: a/an, [ðə]/[ði]) are analyzed phonologically and acoustically. By conducting production tasks in the form of a wug test (Berko, 1958), the following research questions are addressed: (i) Are the plural formation/article selection rules productive in Spanish/English? (ii) Is there an effect of early bilingualism on plural morpheme/article production at the phonological/phonetic level? (iii) Is there an effect of long-term language contact on plural morpheme/article production at the phonological/phonetic level?Results show that Spanish plural rules are more productive among bilinguals than monolinguals, while the exceptional use of masculine articles before stressed-/a/ nouns is largely unproductive across all groups. In English, plural morphemes and a/an alternation are productively used, though the [ðə]/[ði] alternation shows variability.The effect of early bilingualism is more pronounced at the phonetic than at the phonological level. While little evidence of cross-linguistic influence on allomorph selection is found, early bilinguals in Mexico exhibit Spanish-like article alternation patterns (i.e., avoidance of identical vowel sequences with stress on the second vowel-/i#i(ɪ́ )/), not observed among heritage speakers or monolingual English speakers. Acoustic analyses (e.g., vowel formants, center of gravity, fricative duration, percent voicing, glottalization rate across word boundaries) reveal that bilinguals often produce intermediate values between those of Spanish and English monolinguals. Heritage speakers tend to align more closely with English monolinguals, whereas early bilinguals in Mexico pattern with Spanish monolinguals.The effect of long-term language contact was explored by comparing the two early bilingual groups (i.e., heritage bilinguals vs. non-heritage early bilinguals), which differ with respect to the majority language of the society. This aimed to disentangle the effects of community-level language contact from individual bilingualism. Findings from vowel formants, center of gravity, and fricative duration provide evidence of long-term language contact, suggesting ongoing language change in Los Angeles Spanish.
