Laryngeal inflammations - PowerPoint PPT Presentation


Is regressive voice assimilation a mirage?

Delve into the discussion on regressive voice assimilation, challenging traditional views of laryngeal phonology. Explore the intricate phonetic cues and contrasts that go beyond Voice Onset Time (VOT), examining the complexities of active [-voice] in voicing languages. Discover the prevalence of re

The Three Modules of Phonology and Multiple-Module Spell-Out Systems

Phonology is structured into three modules - Sonority, Laryngeal, and Place - each with its own vocabulary and skeleton for computation. These modules interact in multiple-module spell-out systems to map linguistic structures onto phonetic realizations. Sonority, involving the audibility of linguist
