Effects of L1 phonotactic constraints on L2 speech perception and production were analyzed during the course of audio‐visual perceptual training for Japanese adult learners of English by observing articulation of words containing /l/, /r/, and /w/. The speech identification score drastically improved during the training. The improvement in non‐native word‐initial rl distinction was clearly associated with the changes in the perceptual, articulatory, and neuronal spaces, which represent dissimilarities between the non‐native and native phonemes in each domain assessed through perceptual, palatographic, and neuromagnetic measurements. Significant difficulty in identification of consonant‐rl clusters, however, remained for some trainees even after one year of training. Analyses of palato‐lingual contact patterns during word articulation suggested that more articulatory errors tend to occur in consonant‐rl clusters than in other phonotactic contexts in such a way that both /l/ and /r/ are substituted with Japanese /r/ sometimes associated with a vowel inserted. Results suggested that the L2 phonological system can be acquired through a multimodal training, although it is strongly interfered with by L1 phonotactic constraints.
