Previous studies show that errors in sentence recall reflect a preference to produce more conceptually accessible DPs earlier in a sentence (for example, animates before inanimates). However, there is a debate as to the stage of sentence production at which accessibility plays a role. Models of sentence production (Levelt et al. 1999) have proposed separate stages for the assignment of lexical items to grammatical roles and for the linear ordering of constituents. Some studies have found evidence for an accessibility effect in grammatical assignment only (Bock & Warren 1985, Tanaka 2011), and some for both levels (see Branigan et al. 2007). We studied the recall of 3 sentence types in French: voice alternations (1), coordinated DPs (2), and ditransitives (3). French does not have an English-type dative alternation, but postverbal ditransitives arguments may have NP-PP or PP-NP order (NP-PP order is considered to be canonical based on corpus evidence (Thuilier 2012)). Preliminary results show that for transitives (N=30), speakers were more likely to produce passive-to-active inversions that avoided an inanimate argument in subject position (39% of acceptable recalls) than when both arguments were animate (11.4%, p<.01). No significant differences were found based on animacy for inversions in coordinations (N=32). Ditransitives (N=33) did not show a preference for ordering animate arguments before inanimates. In fact, there was an interaction (p<.01) such that ditransitives with inanimate themes had the most inversions from PP-NP to NP-PP order (22%) and the least inversions from NP-PP to PP-NP (4.5%). Our results for transitives and coordinations support a role for animacy in grammatical role assignment but not for linear order. The ditransitive result, however, is not predicted by either view of the role of conceptual accessibility.
