Using Statistical Distributions to Learn Abstract Phonotactic Constraints
French liaison has long been a favourite testing ground for phonological theories, a situation which can undoubtedly be attributed to the complexity of the phenomenon, involving in particular phonology/syntax, phonology/morphology, phonology/lexicon interfaces. Dealing with liaison requires stepping into all the components of the grammar, while tackling at the same time the quicksands of variat...
متن کاملCross-Vowel Phonotactic Constraints
Fudge (1969), Clements and Keyser (1983), and Davis (1984) have all pointed out a number of systematic phonotactic constraints holding between a prevocalic and a postvocalic consonant in English monosyllabic words. One of the strongest of these constraints, and one that has been observed by all three of the above mentioned researchers, is that there are no monosyllabic words of the form sCVC in...
متن کاملPerceptual constraints in phonotactic learning.
Structural regularities in language have often been attributed to symbolic or statistical general purpose computations, whereas perceptual factors influencing such generalizations have received less interest. Here, we use phonotactic-like constraints as a case study to ask whether the structural properties of specific perceptual and memory mechanisms may facilitate the acquisition of grammatica...
متن کاملL2 Nonword Recognition and Phonotactic Constraints
This lexical decision task tests the salience of the first language phonological filter in fluent Russian-English adult bilinguals. The results show that illegal English nonwords with sound clusters impossible for English but which are at the same time legal for Russian (which means they occur in Russian), are sooner recognized as such than those nonwords that do not violate constraints of eith...
متن کاملAllophonic and Phonotactic Constraints Are Useful
It is well known that phonemes have different acoustic/phonetic realizations depending on the context. For example, the phoneme / t / is typically realized with a different allophone (phonetic variant) in syllable initial position than in syllable final position. In syllable initial position (e.g., Lorn), / t / is almost always released (with a strong burst of energy) and aspirated (with / h / ...
