    "abstract": "We used a cross-modal repetition priming task to\ninvestigate the mental representation of regular and\nirregular past tense forms in English. Subjects heard\na spoken prime (such as walked) immediately\nfollowed by lexical decision to a visual probe (such as\nwalk). W e contrasted three types of English verbs,\nvarying in the phonological and morphological\nregularity of their past tense inflection. These were\n(i) Regular verbs {jump/jumped), with the regular 1-61\ninflection and no stem change, (ii) Semi-Weak verbs\n{burn/burnt, feel/felt), with irregular alveolar\ninflection and some phonologically regular stem\nvowel change, and (iii) Vowel Change verbs\n{sing/sang, give/gave), which mark past tense\nthrough phonologically irregular changes in the stem\nvowel. T h e stem forms of these verbs were presented\nin three prime conditions ~ preceded either by the\nIdentity Prime, a Past Tense Prime, or a Control\nPrime. T h e Identity Prime significantly facilitated\nlexical decision responses for all three verb classes,\nbut the Past Tense Prime, while significantly\nfacilitating responses in the Regular verb class,\nproduced no overall effect for the Semi-Weak verbs,\nand significant interference for the Vowel Change\nverbs. W e conclude that phonological irregularity in\nthe relation between a stem and an inflected form can\nlead to very different lexical structures than w e find\nfor more regular phonological relationships.",
