Studies of phonological cuing for anomia in Indo-European languages are well documented.However, there are few studies of phonological cuing with Chinese speakers. Two studies report aneffect of phonological cuing on spoken name retrieval in Cantonese (Law et al., 2008; Yeung &Law, 2010). In those studies, a training regime was devised to associate object names to the firstsound of the target name using a letter-phoneme strategy. This is of interest because Cantonese is asyllable based language and does not represent sounds as graphemes or letters. Here we ask if it ispossible to find an effect of phonological cuing on anomia in Cantonese without use of anyorthographic cues.
