Scalar Representations in a Unified Model of Phonetics and Phonology
نویسنده
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 and categorical phenomena 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. For example, consi...
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 کاملThe relation between perceptual and production categories in acquisition
Results from two experiments on acquisition of the word initial voicing contrast are compared, one on perception, one on production. Both involved monolingual and bilingual (French/English) subjects. Monolinguals are shown to have frequent disparities between their use of parameters in production and perception. Furthermore, bilingualism is found to affect subjects' production and their percept...
متن کاملPapers in Laboratory Phonology h Between the Grammar and Physics of Speech
Papers in Laboratory Phonology I, edited by John Kingston and Mary E. Beckman, contains 27 revised versions of papers and commentaries presented at the First Conference in Laboratory Phonology, held in June 1987. The editors lead off with an excellent introduction, including discussion of the motivation for the conference, explanation of its multi-disciplinary nature, and summarizations of the ...
متن کاملPhonetics and phonology: gradience, categoriality, and naturalness
In this paper, we explore the relationship between phonetics and phonology, in an attempt to broaden the search for possible sources of complexity that arise in sound patterns and sound systems. We propose that complexity may be better understood if one considers phonetics and phonology together in their multi-faceted interaction. Our goal here is to present an overview of the relevant issues i...
