Tone circles and chance
نویسنده
چکیده
As first noticed by Bodman (1955), Southern Min tone sandhi gives rise to the system of alternations among the lexical long tones shown in (1) (using the phonetic tone values found in Chiayi county in southern Taiwan, expressed in the 5-point IPA scale). Given its shape, this system is often called the Southern Min Tone Circle (though the Southern Min Tone Lollipop would be a more accurate name, given the "stick" where two tones neutralize into one).

Israʾiliyyat or Traditions of Jewish Origin: A Major Instance of Transferred Traditions
One of the recent inquiries in the field of hadith studies is the investigation of transferred traditions and their causes and impacts on Shi‘i hadith circles. By exploring some traditions in the hadith collection of al-Shaykh al-Saduq and comparing the textual similarities and also the chain of transmitters, this research attempts to show that traditions of Jewish origin in the Shi‘i hadith ci...
متن کاملBivariate mean value interpolation on circles of the same radius
We consider bivariate mean-value interpolationproblem, where the integrals over circles are interpolation data. In this case the problem is described over circles of the same radius and with centers are on astraight line and it is shown that in this case the interpolation is not correct.
متن کاملQuaternionic Product of Circles and Cycles and Octonionic Product for Pairs of Circles
This paper concerns with a product of circles induced by the quaternionic product considered in a projective manner. Several properties of this composition law are derived and on this way we arrive at some special numbers as roots or powers of unit. We extend this product to cycles as oriented circles and to pairs of circles by using the algebra of octonions. Three applications of the given pro...
متن کاملStatistical learning in children with specific language impairment.
PURPOSE In this study, the authors examined (a) whether children with specific language impairment (SLI) can implicitly compute the probabilities of adjacent sound sequences, (b) if this ability is related to degree of exposure, (c) if it is domain specific or domain general and, (d) if it is related to vocabulary. METHOD Children with SLI and normal language controls (ages 6;5-14;4 [years;mo...
متن کاملElastic Behavior of Functionally Graded Two Tangled Circles Chamber
This paper presents the numerical elastic solution for a real problem, functionally graded chamber of hydraulic gear pumps under internal pressure. Because of the similarity and complexity for the considering geometry, a bipolar cylindrical coordinate system is used to extract the governing equations. The material properties are considered to vary along the two tangled circles with a power-law ...
