Recursive Patterns in Phonological Phrases
نویسندگان
چکیده
In this paper we investigate an instance of phonological recursion, more specifically we investigate iterative rule application in phonological phrases. The question is whether or not edge-marking processes, such as early pitch accent placement, can be applied recursively to phonological phrases that are embedded in larger phonological phrases.

Stress Patterns of Complex German Cardinal Numbers
German cardinal numbers show variable stress patterns on the phonetic surface. Former studies showed that these cannot be explained by stress shift. In a combined production and perception study, the hypothesis is tested that German cardinal numbers are of a hybrid phonological nature: sentence medially, they behave like compounds following the CSR, while they behave like phonological phrases f...

1. Phonetic considerations in phonological research Phonology is concerned with characterizing the sound patterns of language, typically presented in terms of a system of contrastive sound elements (e.g., syllables, segments, features) and the distribution of those sounds in the makeup of phonological words and phrases. This focus on the sound system and the characteristic patterns that arise w...

متن کاملChapter 4 Recursion in Phonology
In this chapter we investigate an instance of phonological recursion; more specifically, we investigate iterative rule application in phonological phrases. We will show that edge-marking processes, such as early pitch accent placement, can be applied recursively to phonological phrases that are embedded in larger phonological phrases. Before addressing prosodic recursion, we will demonstrate th...
متن کاملPhonological representation: Beyond abstract versus episodic
Phonology deals with systematic patterns in the sound structure of languages. Language scientists propose phonological representations with the goal of developing general and predictive understanding of these patterns. We want our understanding of phonology to be general, capturing the implicit knowledge that different speakers of the same language share, as well as similarities and differences...
