Syllabification and Lexical Phonology in German
نویسنده
چکیده
This paper examines a number of phenomena in German phonology that bear on the theory of Lexical Phonology (Kiparsky 1982, 1985, Halle/Mohanan 1985, Halle/Vergnaud 1987a, b). It is argued that in order to account for these phenomena, it is not necessary to assume an interleaving between morphological and phonological processes, as in the version of Lexical Phonology of Kiparsky (1982, 1985) and Halle/Mohanan (1985), but rather allows for a complete separation of the phonological and the morphological component, as proposed in Halle Vergnaud (1987a ,b).

Syllables and Moras in Arabic
Some of the most salient differences among Arabic vernaculars have to do with syllable structure. This study focuses on the syllabification patterns of three dialect groups, (1) VC-dialects, (2) C-dialects, and (3) CV-dialects,1 and argues that they differ in the licencing of SEMISYLLABLES, moras unaffiliated with syllables and adjoined to higher prosodic constituents. The analysis provides som...
متن کاملAccent, Syllable Structure, and Morphology in Ancient Greek
In ancient Greek, the pitch accent of most words depends on the syllabification assigned to underlying representations, while a smaller, morphologically identifiable class of derived words is accented on the basis of the surface syllable structure, which results from certain contraction and deletion processes. Noyer 1997 proposes a cyclic analysis of these facts and argues that they are incompa...

متن کاملITRI - 00 - 36 Phonological feature based multilingual lexical description Carole
This paper presents a framework for compactly describing word forms in terms of phonological features. Using a highly modular default-inheritance based approach, the framework supports the description of lexical generalisations traditionally modelled as morphology and phonology in a single phonology-based representation. This representation is more uniform and more detailed than previous approa...
متن کاملProbabilistic Context-Free Grammars for Phonology
We present a phonological probabilistic contextfree grammar, which describes the word and syllable structure of German words. The grammar is trained on a large corpus by a simple supervised method, and evaluated on a syllabification task achieving 96.88% word accuracy on word tokens, and 90.33% on word types. We added rules for English phonemes to the grammar, and trained the enriched grammar o...
