Labov, Sound Change, and Phonological Theory
Labov begins his landmark Principles of Linguistic Change with a volume on internal factors governing sound change (Labov 1994) that focuses on the CONSTRAINTS PROBLEM (Weinreich, Labov, and Herzog 1968): what changes are possible for a language in a given state? On the basis of typological data on sound changes and his research on ongoing change in English, he puts forward a set of principled ...
متن کاملDevelopmental perspectives on phonological typology and sound change
The relationship between first language acquisition and phonologization lies at the crossroads of developmental psychology and historical phonology—disciplines not often considered in the same breath when addressing the nature of sound patterns and change. Despite these traditional boundaries I believe that this combined research program can make significant contributions to a more nuanced unde...
متن کاملLearning Exceptions in Phonological Alternations
The present study explores learning phonological alternations that contain exceptions. Participants were exposed to a back/round vowel harmony pattern in which a regular suffix followed harmony, varying between /e/ and /o/ depending on the back/round phonetic features of the stem, and an exceptional suffix that was always /o/ regardless of the features of the stem vowel. Participants in Experim...
متن کاملFrom sound to syntax: phonological constraints on children's lexical categorization of new words.
Two studies examined the role of phonological cues in the lexical categorization of new words when children could also rely on learning by exclusion and whether the role of phonology depends on extensive experience with a language. Phonological cues were assessed via phonological typicality - an aggregate measure of the relationship between the phonology of a word and the phonology of words in ...
متن کاملSound reasoning about unchecked exceptions: soundness proof
In this note we formalize a multithreaded Java-like programming language with unchecked exceptions, try-catch blocks, and synchronized blocks, as well as method contracts, object invariants, block invariants, thread-local objects, and parallel execution statements. We further formalize our verification condition generation-based modular static verification approach that verifies that the progra...
