The argument is made on the basis of constraints that have the same functional basis, but distinct formal properties: ONSET and *ONSET/X (§2). If phonetic factors are projected directly onto phonological constraints, then the shared functional basis of these constraints should entail that they cannot be formally distinct. Specifically, the direct-phonetics model predicts that ONSET is actually ...

This paper establishes the claim that geminate sonorants are cross-linguistically marked, and furthermore, that the relative sonority of a geminate positively correlates with its markedness, i.e., the universal ranking *GEMGLIDE » *GEMLIQUID » *GEMNASAL holds. This ranking is supported by a cross-linguistic survey of geminate inventories (Podesva 2002; Taylor 1985) as well as by a number of pho...

Morphological and phonological processes are tightly interrelated in spoken production. During processing, morphological processes must combine the phonological content of individual morphemes to produce a phonological representation that is suitable for driving phonological processing. Further, morpheme assembly frequently causes changes in a word's phonological well-formedness that must be ad...

This paper addresses the on-going debate over the distinction between Agreement by Correspondence (Hansson 2001; Rose and Walker 2004; a.o.) and the previously dominant theory of autosegmental feature spreading, focusing on a key conceptual difference between the two theories: the role of similarity as the basis of harmony patterns. It is argued that Agreement by Correspondence’s unique ability...

Nonnative sounds and sequences are systematically adapted in both perception and production. For example, American English speakers often modify illegal word-initial clusters by inserting a vocalic transition between the two consonants (e.g., (/bdagu/? [bdagu]). Previous work on such modifications has for the most part focused on relatively abstract properties of the nonnative structures, such ...

In this paper, I study the acquisition of consonant clusters by testing the production of Greek-speaking children. Using a non-word repetition task, I tested the order of acquisition of word initial and word medial s-obstruent (sT), obstruent-obstruent (TT) and obstruent-sonorant (TR) clusters in 59 children. The data presented here shed new light on the nature of word initial clusters that vio...

Perception of an epenthetic vowel within illegal, nonnative, clusters has been reported for a number of stimulus vs. listener language situations. In this study we examine the perception of a prothetic /e/ before word-initial #sC clusters by Spanish vs. French listeners, using gated stimuli derived from naturally produced /#as/+C and /#es/+C utterances. Spanish listeners but not French listener...

Pacific Biosciences has developed a method for real-time sequencing of single DNA molecules (Eid et al., 2009), with intrinsic sequencing rates of several bases per second and read lengths into the kilobase range. Conceptually, this sequencing approach is based on eavesdropping on the activity of DNA polymerase carrying out template-directed DNA polymerization. Performed in a highly parallel op...
