Abstract:
Communication of a message from a speaker to a hearer can take the form of word sequences which the speaker has never before produced and the listener never before heard. However, though utterances may be uniquely constructed, they are built up of discrete units which speakers assume their listeners will already know: words. This article gives an overview of the way listeners and speakers access their mental stock of words (lexicon) during communication.
