Book Introduction to the  Laryngeal Theory

Download or read book Introduction to the Laryngeal Theory written by Fredrik Otto Lindeman and published by Oxford University Press, USA. This book was released on 1987 with total page 168 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: According to the "Laryngeal Theory," Indo-European language--the putative ancestor of Celtic, Germanic, Balto-Slavic, Greek, Armenian, Indo-Iranian, and many other languages--possessed certain consonants called "laryngeals." Although one or two of these consonants live on in Anatolian Indo-European languages, "laryngeals" survive only as vestiges in the non-Anatolian Indo-European language family. This manual guides readers through the complexities of the "Laryngeal Theory," offering a clear and consistent introduction to an important aspect of Indo-European language studies. Casting new light on the phonologic system of Early Indo-European, the book will be welcomed by specialists as well as scholars and students of general linguistic theory.

Book A Lateral Theory of Phonology

Download or read book A Lateral Theory of Phonology written by Tobias Scheer and published by Walter de Gruyter. This book was released on 2004 with total page 926 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The architecture of the human language faculty has been one of the main foci of the linguistic research of the last half century. This branch of linguistics, broadly known as Generative Grammar, is concerned with the formulation of explanatory formal accounts of linguistic phenomena with the ulterior goal of gaining insight into the properties of the 'language organ'. The series comprises high quality monographs and collected volumes that address such issues. The topics in this series range from phonology to semantics, from syntax to information structure, from mathematical linguistics to studies of the lexicon.

Book The Reflexes of the Proto Indo European Laryngeals in Celtic

Download or read book The Reflexes of the Proto Indo European Laryngeals in Celtic written by Nicholas Zair and published by BRILL. This book was released on 2012-08-22 with total page 364 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In The Reflexes of the Proto-Indo-European Laryngeals in Celtic, Nicholas Zair for the first time collects and assesses all the words from the Celtic languages which contained a laryngeal, and identifies the regular results of the laryngeals in each phonetic environment. This allows him to formulate previously unrecognised sound changes affecting Proto-Celtic, and assess the competing explanations for other developments. This work has far-reaching consequences for the understanding of the historical phonology and morphology of the Celtic languages, and for etymological work involving the Celtic language, along with implications for Indo-European sound laws and the Indo-European syllable. A major conclusion is that the laryngeals cannot be used to argue for an Italo-Celtic language family.

Book Laryngeal Features and Laryngeal Neutralization

Download or read book Laryngeal Features and Laryngeal Neutralization written by Linda Lombardi and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2018-10-03 with total page 206 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: First published in 1994. In this study, the author proposes that neutralization is the result of a wellformedness condition that the author calls the Laryngeal Constraint: In languages that have laryngeal neutralization, a laryngeal node is only licensed in a particular syllabic configuration; elsewhere the node will delink to repair the violation of well-formedness. This approach to neutralization is required to correctly explain the typology of laryngeal neutralization. This title will be of interest to students of language and linguistics.

High quality standards are ensured through anonymous reviewing.

Book The Phonetics and Phonology of Laryngeal Features in Native American Languages

Download or read book The Phonetics and Phonology of Laryngeal Features in Native American Languages written by Heriberto Avelino and published by BRILL. This book was released on 2016-05-09 with total page 333 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book presents unique insights into laryngeal features, one of the most intriguing topics of contemporary phonetics and phonology. It investigates in detail properties such as tone, non-modal phonation, non-pulmonic production mechanisms (as in ejectives or implosives), stress, and prosody. What makes American indigenous languages special is that many of these properties co-exist in the phonologies of languages spoken on the continent. Taking diverse theoretical perspectives, the contributions span a range of American languages, illustrating how the phonetics and phonology of laryngeal features provides insight into how potential articulatory and aero-acoustic conflicts are resolved, which contrastive laryngeal features can co-occur in a given language, which features pattern together in phonological processes and how they evolve over time. This contribution provides the most recent research on laryngeal features with an array of studies to expand and enrich the fascinating field of phonetics and phonology of the languages of the Americas.
