In this paper we propose a computational model for the representation and processing of morpho-phonological phenomena in a natural language, like Modern Greek. We aim at a unified treatment of inflection, compounding, and word-internal phonological changes, in a model that is used for both analysis and generation. After discussing certain difficulties cuase by well-known finitestate approaches,...

Opacity is a natural language phenomenon where phonological process rendered non-surface-true by virtue of its interaction with other processes. Phonologists have long been fascinated opaque generalizations both from typological standpoint (What kinds are found?) and theoretical one (Which formal tools permit an analysis opacity?). This review aims to ( a) discuss the breadth in light phonologi...

in the classification of morpho-phonological processes of different languages proposed by jensen (1990), the least frequent process is perhaps the one related to morph-movement due to morpho-phonological reasons, which leads to changes in the canonical order of morphs in the word form. this article aimed to introduce a case of this rare process in kalhori kurdish. this process takes place in th...

in this study, mass transfer coefficients (mtc’s) of natural gas components during hydrate formation are reported. this work is based on the assumption that the transport of gas molecules from gas phase to aqueous phase is dominant among other resistances. several experiments were conducted on a mixture of natural gas at different pressures and temperatures and the consumed gas was monitored an...

Two studies investigated the degree to which the relationship between rapid automatized naming (RAN) performance and reading development is driven by shared phonological processes. Study 1 assessed RAN, phonological awareness, and reading performance in 1010 7- to 10-year-olds. Results showed that RAN deficits occurred in the absence of phonological awareness deficits. These were accompanied by...

Phonological chain shifts have been the focus of many theoretical, developmental, and clinical concerns. This paper considers an overlooked property of the problem by focusing on the typological properties of the widely attested 's > θ > f' chain shift involving the processes of Labialization and Dentalization in early phonological development. Findings are reported from a cross-sectional study...

Muka Qiang has two phonological tones. Contrary to typological expectations of a two-tone system, both are types of high tone: non-high syllables are toneless. The first type of tone is a high word tone that aligns with the left edge of the word and spreads rightward, linking to as many as four syllables; lexical prosodic domains longer than four syllables have not been observed. The other tone...

Under what format(s) are spoken words memorized by the brain? Are word forms stored as abstract phonological representations? Or rather, are they stored as detailed acoustic-phonetic representations? (For example as a set of acoustic exemplars associated with each word). We present a series of experiments whose results point to the existence of prelexical phonological processes in word recognit...

Phonological encoding in language production can be defined as a set of processes generating utterance forms on the basis of semantic and syntactic information. Most evidence about these processes stems from analyses of sound errors. In section 1 of this paper, certain important results of these analyses are reviewed. Two prominent models of phonological encoding, which are mainly based on spee...

The paradigm of immediate serial recall (Baddeley, 1986) has been used extensively in investigation of working memory, but its relation to and implications for the nature of phonological processing have seldom been examined. We show that findings from thisdomain can be interpreted in two ways, and relate these two interpretations to a simple model of phonological processing. One interpretation ...
