Summary, in English

A comparison between second language learners of Swedish, some of whom have an L1 with lexical tones, while the others do not, and their ability to produce adequate tonal word accents in Swedish is presented. The L1s in question are Farsi, Somali, Vietnamese and Thai. There is no clear evidence that it is easier to learn the correct Swedish word accent patterns and their correct application for speakers whose L1 is a tonal language of any sort. Instead, it does seem to be an advantage to be an L1-speaker of a particular type of tonal language.
