The new orthopaedic hospital at Biddulph Grange, Staffordshire, the opening of which by the Prince of Wales was recorded in our issue of last July, is now in full working order. During the last twelve months most of the fine rooms have been completely transformed and many structural alterations made. These include spacious open-air wards, as shown in our illustration, to which the beds of the p...

This is perhaps the kind of thing that seems obvious in hindsight, but we initially thought that our typology generation algorithm had a bug when it produced the following results: (1) Using the constraints ONSET, NOCODA, DEP-C, DEP-V, MAX to model the CV-syllable theory of Prince and Smolensky (1993:ch 6) over the 14 forms in the input set CV 3 = 3 i=1 {C, V} i (i.e., all strings of C and V up...

In LI 31.2, J. Rubach proposes a modified version of OT that features derivations. In the present article I argue that, while some modification to the original formulation by Prince and Smolensky is needed, the correct one is not to re-introduce derivations, but rather to take fuller advantage of OT’s inherent parallelism. I propose that outputs must be related not only to inputs, but to other,...

0. Combinations of Sonority and Stress In their analysis of Imdlawn Tashlhiyt Berber syllabification, Prince and Smolensky (1993) postulate that different types of prominence, such as sonority and syllabicity, should align—a phenomenon they term prominence alignment. This concept is implemented by Prince and Smolensky using families of inherently-ranked constraints that are derived from combini...

In this paper we analyzed some of the phonological rules of Russian loanword adaptation in Persian, on the view of Optimal Theory (OT) (Prince and Smolensky, 1993, 2003). It is the first study of phonological process on Russian loanwords adaptation in Persian. By gathering about 50 current Russian loanwords, we selected some of them to analyze. We found out that vowel insertion, vowel prothesis...
