Book Phonetic and Phonological Aspects of Geminate Timing

Download or read book Phonetic and Phonological Aspects of Geminate Timing written by William Ham and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2013-10-11 with total page 288 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Using acoustic studies of Bernese, Hungarian, Levantine Arabic and Madurese, the author argues that differences in geminate timing are ultimately correlated with whether a language is syllable-or mora-timed.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The subject of 'contrast' in phonology is one of the most central concepts in linguistics and is of key importance to linguists working across many languages.

Book Asymmetries in the Phonology of Miogliola

Download or read book Asymmetries in the Phonology of Miogliola written by Mirco Ghini and published by Walter de Gruyter. This book was released on 2001 with total page 292 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 Onsets

    Book Details:
  • Author : Nina Topintzi
  • Publisher : Cambridge University Press
  • Release : 2010-04-08
  • ISBN : 113948611X
  • Pages : 283 pages

Download or read book Onsets written by Nina Topintzi and published by Cambridge University Press. This book was released on 2010-04-08 with total page 283 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The concept of the 'onset', i.e. the consonant(s) before the vowel of a syllable, is critical within phonology. While phonologists have examined the segmental behaviour of onsets, their prosodic status has instead been largely overlooked. In fact, most previous accounts have stipulated that onsets are insignificant when it comes to the 'heaviness' of syllables. In this book Nina Topintzi presents a new theory of onsets, arguing for their fundamental role in the structure of language both in the underlying and surface representation, unlike previous assumptions. To capture the weight behaviour of onsets, a novel account is proposed that relates their interaction with voicing, tone and stress. Using numerous case-studies and data from a variety of languages and phenomena (including stress, compensatory lengthening, gemination and word minimality), the book introduces a model that reflects the true behaviour of onsets, demonstrating profound implications for syllable and weight theories.

Book Nasals and Nasalization in Spanish and Portuguese

Download or read book Nasals and Nasalization in Spanish and Portuguese written by C. Elizabeth Goodin-Mayeda and published by John Benjamins Publishing Company. This book was released on 2016-04-22 with total page 115 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Nasality, whether part of a consonant or vowel, has certain phonetic and phonological characteristics that lead to outcomes seen time and again in languages with and without common ancestries. Spanish and Portuguese constitute a particularly fruitful language pairing for studying phonological aspects of synchronic and diachronic variation, given their intimate relationship as well as the array of dialectal variation in each. This research monograph offers a comprehensive exploration of nasals and nasalization in Spanish and Portuguese with a special focus on the role of perception in order to provide insight into how perception informs models of phonetics, phonology and language change. Of interest to researchers and advanced students alike, this volume integrates phonetic and phonological models of speech perception and production, and discusses these with regards to original empirical research on the perception of nasal place features and vowel nasalization by listeners of Peninsular Spanish, Cuban Spanish and Brazilian Portuguese.

Book Handbook of Japanese Phonetics and Phonology

Download or read book Handbook of Japanese Phonetics and Phonology written by Haruo Kubozono and published by Walter de Gruyter GmbH & Co KG. This book was released on 2015-03-10 with total page 808 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This volume is the first comprehensive handbook of Japanese phonetics and phonology describing the basic phonetic and phonological structures of modern Japanese with main focus on standard Tokyo Japanese. Its primary goal is to provide a comprehensive overview and descriptive generalizations of major phonetic and phonological phenomena in modern Japanese by reviewing important studies in the fields over the past century. It also presents a summary of interesting questions that remain unsolved in the literature. The volume consists of eighteen chapters in addition to an introduction to the whole volume. In addition to providing descriptive generalizations of empirical phonetic/phonological facts, this volume also aims to give an overview of major phonological theories including, but not restricted to, traditional generative phonology, lexical phonology, prosodic morphology, intonational phonology, and the more recent Optimality Theory. It also touches on theories of speech perception and production. This book serves as a comprehensive guide to Japanese phonetics and phonology for all interested in linguistics and speech sciences.

Book Corpus Phonology of English

    Book Details:
  • Author : Przewozny Anne Przewozny
  • Publisher : Edinburgh University Press
  • Release : 2020-07-23
  • ISBN : 1474467024
  • Pages : 318 pages

Download or read book Corpus Phonology of English written by Przewozny Anne Przewozny and published by Edinburgh University Press. This book was released on 2020-07-23 with total page 318 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Placing contemporary spoken English at the centre of phonological research, this book tackles the issue of language variation and change through a range of methodological and theoretical approaches. In doing so the book bridges traditionally separate fields such as experimental phonetics, theoretical phonology, language acquisition and sociolinguistics. Made up of 12 chapters, it explores a substantial range of linguistic phenomena. It covers auditory, acoustic and articulatory phonetics, second language pronunciation and perception, sociophonetics, cross-linguistic comparison of vowel reduction and methodological issues in the construction of phonological corpora. The book presents new data and analyses which demonstrate what phonologists, phoneticians and sociolinguists do with their corpora and show how various theoretical and experimental questions can be explored in light of authentic spoken data.

Book Frontiers of Phonology

Download or read book Frontiers of Phonology written by Jacques Durand and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2014-09-25 with total page 444 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Frontiers of Phonology is a collection of essays that present a selective overview of trends in the linguistic analysis of sound structure. The essays are written by specialists from Europe, Canada and the USA and discuss issues from three broad areas of phonology: the nature and representation of phonological features; the role and structure of the skeletal tier and syllable structure; and the competing claims of derivational and declarative approaches to phonology. The book provides a forum for lively discussion of important theoretical topics from various standpoints including metrical and autosegmental phonology, dependency phonology and declarative phonology. The contributors, who are protagonists of these different standpoints, compare notes and show the merits of their different approaches. The essays discussing derivational issues offer an excellent introduction to the area of constraints based phonology, and by covering the phonology of many languages the book provides an understanding of how human languages in general use sound.
