A recent study conducted at King Saud University in Riyadh, Saudi Arabia, examined the reading process of non-native Arabic learners when faced with ambiguous sentences. The study found that the absence of short vowels and diacritics in the sentences, known as garden path sentences, significantly affected the reading times of the participants. However, their reading comprehension was not affected. The researchers suggest that the reading experience and the nature of the Arabic writing system may play a role in how readers interpret and process these sentences. For more information, readers can refer to the article "L2 Arabic learners' processing of Arabic garden-path sentences: a consistent reading pattern" published in Frontiers in Psychology.
