Assessing relative language dominance in bilingual contexts is both necessary and difficult. A variety of language questionnaires have been used in previous studies, but their results are inconsistent. This study instead takes a psycholinguistic approach to assessing bilinguals’ language dominance by using a phrase-building task to test seventeen Korean-American bilinguals. The study examines the relationship between the frequency of language use and lexical accessibility. The results demonstrate that the more frequently used language(i.e., English) was produced significantly faster than the less frequently used language(i.e., Korean). The study’s findings provide empirical evidence supporting a frequency of language use on lexical accessibility
