Scalar and categorical phenomena in a unified model of phonetics and phonology*

چکیده
Standard phonological representations provide only a very coarse-grained specification of the phonetic properties of a word or phrase. That is, representation in terms of standard phonological features and timing units corresponds approximately to the level of detail contained in a broad phonetic transcription, and the representation of time is in many ways even more limited. For example, consider the representation in (1)

Scalar Representations in a Unified Model of Phonetics and Phonology
Standard phonological representations provide only a very coarse-grained specification of the phonetic properties of a word or phrase. That is, representation in terms of standard phonological features and timing units corresponds approximately to the level of detail contained in a broad phonetic transcription, and the representation of time is in many ways even more limited.

متن کاملSpanish complex onsets and the phonetics–phonology interface*
This study analyzes cross-dialectal phonetic variation in Spanish complex onsets in light of recent work on the phonetics–phonology interface. Two basic patterns of obstruent-rhotic cluster realization, vowel intrusion and coarticulation-induced rhotic assibilation, receive a phonetically-motivated explanation in terms of the temporal coordination of consonantal gestures, within the framework o...
متن کاملDynamics in grammar: comment on Ladd and Ernestus & Baayen*
The derivational view of phonetics-phonology (Ladd, this volume) expresses an intuition that seems valid, namely, that there is a distinction to be made between quantitative and qualitative aspects of phonetics-phonology. Incomplete neutralization (Ernestus and Baayen, this volume) and other phenomena like it indicate that the specific way of drawing that distinction is too rigid. At the same t...

متن کاملThe Division of Labor between Segment-internal Structure and Violable Constraints
This paper touches on a range of conceptual and practical issues that are relevant to current discussions regarding the nature of the phonological component of the grammar, including: featural, representational and constraint economy; representation versus evaluation; computation versus competence; the line between phonetics and phonology; categorical perception; full-specification of features ...
