Levelts Speech Production Model
A Situation is given
person thinks about what wants to express, which wordflieds are needed / conecptualizer sends generated message to formulator where message has to be grammatically encoded
Encoding process: how to express message and thinking about needed words
Phonological encode: Preparing to speak the firmly correct utterance
Prepartion fulfilled. Next step is articulator
Articulator: utterance is said out loud
Speech is heard by the audience
Audience does not react, the message could contain mistakes.
In this case, Monitoring! formulator and articulator start to work again.
Mental Lexicon:
Words are like triggers that give access to meaning
can be envisioned like a network that allows rapid retrieval of words
words with similar sounds are stored together
Chunks of ready to speak production
