The Unabridged Feature Classes in Phonology
This paper argues for a particular understanding of feature class behavior the recurrent patterning together of certain phonological features, such as place of articulation and laryngeal features. The proposals build on the well known work of Feature Geometry in assuming the importance of feature classes in phonology, but differ in that features of a class are targeted directly and invidually b...
متن کاملComposition operators and natural metrics in meromorphic function classes $Q_p$
In this paper, we investigate some results on natural metrics on the $mu$-normal functions and meromorphic $Q_p$-classes. Also, these classes are shown to be complete metric spaces with respect to the corresponding metrics. Moreover, compact composition operators $C_phi$ and Lipschitz continuous operators acting from $mu$-normal functions to the meromorphic $Q_p$-classes are characte...
متن کاملNatural Phonology as a Functional Theory
This paper presents Natural Phonology as a functional theory. Natural Phonology is shown to be functional in two senses: as focusing on explanation and thus increasing our understanding of how language works, and as having practical applications, especially to second language acquisition and speech therapy. The contribution argues that crucial as formalism is in computational linguistics and sp...
متن کاملDeriving Natural Deduction Rules from Truth Tables
We develop a general method for deriving natural deduction rules from the truth table for a connective. The method applies to both constructive and classical logic. This implies we can derive “constructively valid” rules for any (classical) connective. We show this constructive validity by giving a general Kripke semantics, that is shown to be sound and complete for the constructive rules. For ...
متن کاملDeriving manner of articulation classes from phoneme co-occurrence frequencies
This paper looks into the possibility of deriving manner of articulation classes from phoneme cooccurrence frequencies. We show that distance measures based on phoneme co-occurrence frequencies group abstract manner of articulation classes that participate in phonological processes in spite of high acoustic and articulatory variability, e. g: obstruents, liquids, approximants, etc. The test lan...
