In addition, the response lists for cognates had greater total overlap than did those for non-cognates. Other advantages for cognates have been found in the translation priming literature. The results of the experiment showed that cognates were recalled and recognized better than non-cognates. There were three other words which cannot be called direct cognates, but nevertheless should be mentioned here. Picture naming is faster for cognates than for noncognates in bilingual but not in monolingual individuals. The interference for the homophones stands in contrast to the facilitation observed for cognates. Participants remained silent less often on concrete words than on abstract words, and fewer omissions were observed on cognates than on noncognates. The second of these was not very difficult, because, in general, the characters used were all cross-language cognates (or very close to being cognates). With homographic cognates, no such interference occurs, because only one semantic representation is activated. The results of this study were straightforward: no facilitation effects arose for interlingual homographs relative to controls, while cognates were facilitated. Fewer such incidents are reported when bilinguals are producing familiar cognates and proper names. Pictures were named in each language and were either cognates or non-cognates. However, not all cognates exhibit a one-to-one equivalence at all linguistic levels. Focused language instruction provided infor mation on cognates, word structure, g rammatical function, lexical cohesion and structural redundancy.
