Phonetics is not phonology

On the Relationship between Phonology and Phonetics (or Why Phonetics Is Not Phonology)

In this presentation, I argue that unifying phonetics and phonology in the grammar has undesirable consequences. Evidence for this position is provided from various sources, but focuses on intonation, an area of linguistic structure that has often been viewed as not requiring an abstract phonological representation.

Phonetics in Phonology and Phonology in Phonetics

5. Some caveats -The phonetics/phonology interface is a broad topic that has been considered from many points of views. -Extensive recent literature in acquisition, psycholinguistics, role of the lexicon, role of speech perception (See among others, recent LabPhon volumes, Burton-Roberts et al. 2000, Hume and Johnson 2001, Bod et al. 2003) -Conclusion recently argued for by Pierrehumbert (2003,...

The Phonetics-Phonology Interface

To bridge the gap between the dissimilar mechanisms and entities of the phonological grammar and those of the phonetic mechanisms for producing and perceiving speech, the ‘phonetics-phonology interface’ (PPI) has been invoked. In this brief presentation, an introduction to the ICPhS 2003 Symposium on The Phonetics-Phonology Interface, I present an exegesis and taxonomy of the PPI and some citat...

Segmental Phonetics and Phonology

This article surveys the major topics of Caucasian phonetics and phonology focusing on those aspects that bear broader implications for general phonetics and phonological theory. The article first presents an acoustic phonetic treatment of phonemic inventories in the three Caucasian families that involves both a review of recent instrumental data on the topic as well as a new analysis of experi...
