In English, the word llama is pronounced "LA-MA." In Spanish, llama is more typically pronounced as "YA-MA" or "JA-MA," depending on the dialect. Analyzing this situation in terms of the similarity of stimuli and responses, we can predict that a person who first learns to read the word in English and then learns to read it in Spanish will ____

Answer 1

He or she will pronounce the word using sounds that are similar in both languages.

Step-by-step explanation:

For example, the word "llama" in English is prononce "lama" because the "LL" sound is not pronounced in English. However, in Spanish "LL" is used in other words like "llave", "llavero", "lluvia", etc. So someone who speaks English and learns to pronounce it in English and then in Spanish would pronounce the word using sounds that are similar in both languages.

-The sound "LL" in Spanish is similar to the sound "J" in "jet", "job". It is a similar sound but It is not the same sound because the place of articulation of these two sounds is different.
