Utilization of Nganasan digital resources: a statistical approach to vowel harmony
ثبت نشده
چکیده
According to the wide-spread belief, although Nganasan has vowel harmony, the harmonic class of a given stem is unpredictable, completely lexicalized. The research made on two different digital sources of Nganasan (a lexicon of a morphological analyzer with harmonic class of the stems tagged and a morphologically annotated corpus) shows that in most of the cases the harmonic class of stems is well predictable based on the vowels in it. Nganasan vowels belong to two harmonic classes except for one neutral vowel.

متن کاملTwo Statistical Approaches to Finding Vowel Harmony
The present study examines two methods for learning and modeling vowel harmony from text corpora. The first uses Expectation Maximization with Hidden Markov Models to find the most probable HMM for a training corpus. The second uses pointwise Mutual Information between distant vowels in a Boltzmann distribution, along with the Minimal Description Length principle to find and model vowel harmony...
متن کاملVowel Harmony in Korean and Morpheme Correspondence1
The two most controversial aspects of vowel harmony in Korean ideophones are its morphologically restricted nature and the harmonic feature governing these alternations. Not only is the harmony pattern restricted to the ideophone class2, but also the value of the harmonic feature determines the meaning of the ideophone itself. While alternations from one feature to another involve relative lowe...
متن کاملStochastic phonological knowledge: the case of Hungarian vowel harmony
In Hungarian, stems ending in a back vowel plus one or more neutral vowels show unusual behaviour: for such stems, the otherwise general process of vowel harmony is lexically idiosyncratic. Particular stems can take front suffixes, take back suffixes or vacillate. Yet at a statistical level, the patterning among these stems is lawful: in the aggregate, they obey principles that relate the prope...
متن کاملSchwas in Moro Vowel Harmony
Moro is a Kordofanian language spoken in the Nuba Mountains of Sudan. It has a vowel height harmony system that presents an intriguing challenge due to the dual nature of the central schwa vowel. Schwas in some morphemes can trigger vowel harmony, while schwas in other morphemes do not. In addition, schwas can appear with both sets of harmonic vowels within morphemes, raising the issue of wheth...
