Book Topics in Phonological Theory

Download or read book Topics in Phonological Theory written by Michael Kenstowicz and published by Elsevier. This book was released on 2014-05-10 with total page 255 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Topics in Phonological Theory is a six-chapter text that provides an explication of some of the most important problems in phonological theory, with a few, necessarily tentative, solutions. The first chapter deals with the problem of abstractness in terms of a series of successively weaker constraints that might be placed on the relationship between the underlying and phonetic representations of a morpheme. The second chapter begins with a discussion of the various ways in which the phonetic basis of a rule may be lost in the course of historical change, which lays the groundwork for a lengthy survey of the types of grammatical and lexical conditions that may control the application of a phonological rule. The third chapter describes the constraints and conditions on phonological representations, particularly the domain of these constraints, the level at which they hold, and their duplication of phonological rules. The fourth chapter examines the problem of natural rule interactions, focusing on Kiparsky's theories of maximal utilization and opacity-transparency and their deficiencies. The fifth chapter deals with Chomsky and Halle's simultaneous application principle as well as with more recent proposals The sixth chapter compares the relative merits of global rules versus rule ordering for the description of opaque rule interactions. This book is intended primarily for linguistics.

Book Orthography  Phonology  Morphology and Meaning

Download or read book Orthography Phonology Morphology and Meaning written by R. Frost and published by Elsevier. This book was released on 1992-10-20 with total page 445 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The area of research on printed word recognition has been one of the most active in the field of experimental psychology for well over a decade. However, notwithstanding the energetic research effort and despite the fact that there are many points of consensus, major controversies still exist.This volume is particularly concerned with the putative relationship between language and reading. It explores the ways by which orthography, phonology, morphology and meaning are interrelated in the reading process. Included are theoretical discussions as well as reviews of experimental evidence by leading researchers in the area of experimental reading studies. The book takes as its primary issue the question of the degree to which basic processes in reading reflect the structural characteristics of language such as phonology and morphology. It discusses how those characteristics can shape a language's orthography and affect the process of reading from word recognition to comprehension.Contributed by specialists, the broad-ranging mix of articles and papers not only gives a picture of current theory and data but a view of the directions in which this research area is vigorously moving.

Book Phonetic Interpretation

Download or read book Phonetic Interpretation written by John Local and published by Cambridge University Press. This book was released on 2004-02-12 with total page 420 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: First published in 2003, Phonetic Interpretation presents innovative work from four core areas: phonological representations and the lexicon, phonetic interpretation and phrasal structure, phonetic interpretation and syllable structure, and phonology and natural speech production. Written by major figures in the fields of phonetics, phonology and speech perception, the chapters in this volume use a wide range of laboratory and instrumental techniques to analyse the production and perception of speech, their aim being to explore the relationship between the sounds of speech and the linguistic organisation that lies behind that. The chapters present evidence of the lively intellectual engagement of laboratory phonology practitioners with the complexities and richness of human language. The book continues the tradition of the series, Papers in Laboratory Phonology, by bringing linguistic theory to bear on an essential problem of linguistics: the relationship between mental models and the physical nature of speech.

Book The Routledge Handbook of Phonological Theory

Download or read book The Routledge Handbook of Phonological Theory written by S.J. Hannahs and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2017-12-14 with total page 646 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Routledge Handbook of Phonological Theory provides a comprehensive overview of the major contemporary approaches to phonology. Phonology is frequently defined as the systematic organisation of the sounds of human language. For some, this includes aspects of both the surface phonetics together with systematic structural properties of the sound system; for others, phonology is seen as distinct from, and autonomous from, phonetics. The Routledge Handbook of Phonological Theory surveys the differing ways in which phonology is viewed, with a focus on current approaches to phonology. Divided into two parts, this handbook: covers major conceptual frameworks within phonology, including: rule-based phonology; Optimality Theory; Government Phonology; Dependency Phonology; and connectionist approaches to generative phonology; explores the central issue of the relationship between phonetics and phonology; features 23 chapters written by leading academics from around the world. The Routledge Handbook of Phonological Theory is an authoritative survey of this key field in linguistics, and is essential reading for students studying phonology.

Book Differentiating Instruction for Students With Learning Disabilities

Download or read book Differentiating Instruction for Students With Learning Disabilities written by William N. Bender and published by Corwin Press. This book was released on 2008 with total page 225 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Written for teachers who want to know how to differentiate instruction for students with learning difficulties, the second edition of Differentiating Instruction for Students with Learning Disabilities draws upon the bestselling success of the first edition in explicitly showing what differentiated instruction is and how to use differentiated strategies in the classroom. With more concentration on brain-research, multiple intelligence, response to intervention (RTI), tiered instruction, and universal design for learning (UDL), William N. Bender provides the most comprehensive book on differentiated instruction and learning disabilities based on scientific research and with a practical, teacher-friendly approach. An updated reference section, brief "Teaching Tips" side bars, and thought-provoking new feature "Reflections" augment this powerful resource that educators can immediately use in the classroom with all students who have learning disabilities, who are at-risk, and who may have learning difficulties.

Book The Emergence of Phonology

Download or read book The Emergence of Phonology written by Marilyn M. Vihman and published by Cambridge University Press. This book was released on 2013-11-07 with total page 531 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: How well have classic ideas on whole-word phonology stood the test of time? Waterson claimed that each child has a system of their own; Ferguson and Farwell emphasized the relative accuracy of first words; Menn noted the occurrence of regression and the emergence of phonological systematicity. This volume brings together classic texts such as these with current data-rich studies of British and American English, Arabic, Brazilian Portuguese, Finnish, French, Japanese, Polish and Spanish. This combination of classic and contemporary work from the last thirty years presents the reader with cutting-edge perspectives on child language by linking historical approaches with current ideas such as exemplar theory and usage-based phonology, and contrasting state-of-the-art perspectives from developmental psychology and linguistics. This is a valuable resource for cognitive scientists, developmentalists, linguists, psychologists, speech scientists and therapists interested in understanding how children begin to use language without the benefit of language-specific innate knowledge.

Book Phonological Representations

Download or read book Phonological Representations written by John Coleman and published by Cambridge University Press. This book was released on 1998-01-29 with total page 365 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Rewriting rules, derivations and underlying representations is an enduring characteristic of generative phonology. In this book, John Coleman argues that this is unnecessary. The expressive resources of context-free Unification grammars are sufficient to characterize phonological structures and alternations. According to this view, all phonological forms and constraints are partial descriptions of surface representations. This framework, now called Declarative Phonology, is based on a detailed examination of the formalisms of feature-theory, syllable theory and the leading varieties of nonlinear phonology. Dr Coleman illustrates this with two extensive analyses of the phonological structure of words in English and Japanese. As Declarative Phonology is surface-based and highly restrictive, it is consistent with cognitive psychology and amenable to straightforward computational implementation.

Book Morphology

Download or read book Morphology written by Joan L. Bybee and published by John Benjamins Publishing. This book was released on 1985-01-01 with total page 246 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This is a textbook right in the thick of current interest in morphology. It proposes principles to predict properties previously considered arbitrary and brings together the psychological and the diachronic to explain the recurrent properties of morphological systems in terms of the processes that create them. For the student, the clear discussion of morphology and morphophonemics and the rich variety of data brought in on the way to the theoretical conclusion is material for a direct learning experience.

Book Teaching Languages to Students with Specific Learning Differences

Download or read book Teaching Languages to Students with Specific Learning Differences written by Judit Kormos and published by Channel View Publications. This book was released on 2023-08-01 with total page 401 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book is intended to help language teachers to work effectively and successfully with students who have Specific Learning Differences (SpLDs). It enables teachers to gain a thorough understanding of the nature of SpLDs and how these affect both general learning processes and the mechanisms of second language acquisition. In addition, the book explores the particular inclusive methods and techniques of teaching and assessment that foster success in language learning. Language teaching is embedded in a wider social and educational context, and therefore the book also provides an in-depth discussion of general educational issues related to identifying and disclosing disabilities and to making transitions from one institution to the other. The content has been thoroughly updated and revised for the second edition, particularly in the areas of inclusive pedagogies, new evidence-based methods and tools for identifying SpLDs, and new conceptualisations of neurodiversity. The book also includes the latest research on assessment, transition and progression, and the impact of SpLDs on additional language learning.
