What results is a mismatch between prosody and syntax, given that the syntactic elements that form a constituent (determiner and noun phrase) are prosodically separated. While such a phenomenon is attested in certain other languages of the Pacific Northwest, such as Kwakw’ala (cf. Anderson 1985, 1992, 2005), the process is restricted in Upriver Halkomelem to connected-speech contexts, and displ...

In this study, we investigated grammatical feature selection during noun phrase production in German and Dutch. More specifically, we studied the conditions under which different grammatical genders select either the same or different determiners or suffixes. Pictures of one or two objects paired with a gender-congruent or a gender-incongruent distractor word were presented. Participants named ...

Are there acoustic invariants that mediate the perception of phonemes? If there were, they might be shared by a number of languages. But this acoustic-phonemic relationship does not occur in a simple way for any of the languages that have been examined. Has, then, such an approach to speech perception been abandoned? Not entirely; some theorists argue that there are invariant acoustic propertie...
